I am not convinced that it is stronger than other programs today.

I know in 1991 it played against grandmasters in a tournament and did 2.5 out of
7(performance 2410).

Deep thought did much better results than 2410 in previous years but I believe
that it is mainly because grandmasters did not know how to play against
computers.

The version that played against Mike Valvo is from 1988.
(I have one of the games against Mike Valvo in the book How to beat your chess
computer by David Levy and it was played in 1988-1989)
