So far, Feng-hsiung's predictions were quite accurate. There is no way to know it without games of this thing against kasparov. I believe that he has to do something stronger than deeper blue in order to defeat kasparov. Kasparov could not see games of deeper blue before the match against deeper blue and deeper blue could win only because of stupid mistakes of kasparov(mistakes that kasparov usually does not do against humans). one mistake was resigning in a drawn position because kasparov believed that deeper blue cannot do tactical mistakes and cannot let him to get a draw from a bad position. I believe that kasparov did not calculated if he has a perpetual check after Qe3 because of this reason. the second mistake was changing the order of moves in the opening that let deeper blue to do Nxe6 that kasparov was not prepared to play against. The point is not if Nxe6 is a good move but the fact that kasparov was not prepared to it and started to think in a known theoretic position. Uri
