The top ten humans in the U.S.A. average 2595 on the Fide scale. The top ten micro programs average 2550 on the Hallsworth Selective Search scale when operating at 200 mhz. We would expect at least a 50 point increase when operating at 400 mhz. Therefore, the micros would average 2600. There would be a five point advantage for the micros, but not enough to show if each of the humans play one black and one white with each of the micros. I predict the match would be dead even. G. Kasparov has stated that the top micros are playing above 2600 now.
