Once computers do dominate, the public will lose interest in them, and I think the computer chess field will shrink to just a few of us computer nerds. It is ironic that the people who want so hard for computers to dominate as quickly as possible are actually just moving the date forward when computers are unable to interest the average chess player. People used to holler and cheer when there were airplane - auto races. No such thing now, and computer chess will go the same way. :( James
