Even the Deep Blue team is less Biased & more realistic than you are Hyatt! http://www.southerncrossreview.org/2/chess.htm Quoting: "In Scientific American, May 1996, there is an interview with the designers of DB, a parallel system with 16 nodes. "In three minutes, the time allocated for each move in a formal match, the machine can evaluate a total of about 20 billion moves; that is enough to consider every single possible move and countermove 12 sequences ahead and select lines of attack as much as 30 moves beyond that. 'The fact that this ability is still not enough to beat a mere human is amazing', Campbell [one of the six IBM prophets behind DB] says. The lesson, Hoane [another one] adds, is that masters such as Kasparov 'are doing some mysterious computation that we can't figure out.'"
