Well it has certainly been kicking the crap out of Shredder, which is the

When was the last time Hydra lost a game in competition?

As for the strongest chess entity? Doubtful. That would goto Anand or Kasparov.

I think Anand could win _any_ match he faced vs a program. He has a style that
would be tough to beat (lately).
