In the two longer games Rebel had no real chance, while deep blue won the match it played. You aren't going to see a rebel*1000 in the next hundred years, probably. Because technology is nowhere near even thinking about machines with picosecond cycle types. The technology to produce such technology doesn't exist yet... The next problem is that a special-purpose piece of hardware will *always* be orders of magnitude faster than general-purpose hardware, so that if we wait for a 1000x faster rebel, we get a 10000x faster deep blue in the process...
