For a program to come onto the scene, suddenly, and defeat all other
top contenders by a half-class, at the strength levels they are at,
is one of the great achievements of computer chess for many years.

Additionally, for that same program to be still lacking many important
features that will further boost strength, augeurs incredibly for the
future of the program.

Also, for it to have been written by an IM, a young person, with a degree
from MIT, makes it all the more interesting.

The praise is not poorly placed. The excitement is palpable. Something
new is happening.
