Who is number 1? Fritz beat Deep Blue in the last WCCC. Kasparov beat Karpov and Anand for World Chess Champion Titles. Deep Blue II beat Kasparov in the last match, but Deep Blue II has not beat Fritz in a public match (private match perhaps, but who can say, where are the games?). Kasparov used Fritz as a sparing partner in preparation for the DBII match (where are the games? who won these games? no facts). Deep Blue II ducks the current WCCC. Well I guess we will never have an answer based on facts. So who is number 1 in your opinion? Fritz, DBII, Kasparov, or winner of 1999 WCCC? It will be easy to pick DBII becaus of blah, blah, blah or Kasparov for the same reasons (perhaps valid), but my opinion is that Fritz is the champ until some program (or person) knocks it off the top based on a public match. I like CM6K myself, but it can not be champ if it does not compete. In my opinion. Best Regards, Chris Carson
