Go up one level in this thread


I think, however, when Hsu brings his chips to market, this will be a __Big__
jump in computer chess.  Although hardware evaluations have been around for some
time ( since Belle ?), they have not be available to the masses, and not at the
performance level he describes.  I do think this will qualify, as a __Big__ leap
in performance.


My $0.02.

BTW, since IBM is partners in the PPC chip, how about makeing them available for
PPC PCI based systems (_first_).  I'd love to put deep blue in my Mac. :)
