Subject: Will Shreder, Junior do better on Hydra type hardware (les FPGA chips)?

I knew FPGA chips can not be used with Fritz, Shredder and Junior and is a
harware not a software but I really wanted to know how many people(programmers)
who are discussing Hydra vs Shredder match so aggresively really know abt
Hydra's Hardware here.

Well now my real question, rather than using FPGA chips can a really huge
cluster say more than Hydra be used to operate Fritz,Shredder or Junior which
then can be turned into System like Deep Blue with better chess Knowledge (of
Shredder, Juior,Fritz) which Deep Blue lacked and is Hydra a new begining
towards that type of system? or is it that this is just one of the rare events
that Hydra has won ? (The same was said abt Shredder when it won a World
championship for the first time)
