I wonder, Since Rebel 10 has beaten Anand, and Fritz has now beaten Polgar. I
just wonder how strong a commercial version of Blue would be. I mean the
original Program required a super computers costing more than what we earn in a
lifetime.

There are already commercial programs that can beat GM's on the market. So
unless they have developed a program that is something special and does not
require a million dollar super computer to run it, then I think it is a bit of a
storm in a tea cup to expect something special.
