I read somewhere, where kaspy said that a strong player with the aid of a computer would be a very formidable foe, So i would think that a international master armed with one of the top computer programs, along with the positional knowledge which computers lack, would give kaspy a interesting challenge. I think alot of titled players nowadays are very expierenced using programs, and perhaps they would not be as distracted as you suggest.
