Subject: About Deep Blue

As far as know deep blue was based on an actual chess playing program (please
correct me if am wrong) Dark Thought, does anyone recall the k/Ns for Dark
Thought on a regular PC at that time?

I am asking this because we could maybe make an estimate of how Dark Thouhgt
would perform k/Ns wise on PC's of today and get a better understanding of what
the real speedup was on Deep Blue.

Maybe i am confusing the program Deep Blue was build up around and maybe it is
not comparable (apples and oranges as Bob would put it), but if feaseble it
would make for an interesting comparison/experiement.

Regards
Jonas
