The Dedicated units would get trounced but manage to win no more than 30 percent
of the time.  Deeper Blue would beat all the PC software more than 90 percent of
the time.

I always wanted to own Ken Thompsens' Belle machine and now I own a computer
that with Hiarcs 7.32 is far superior.   The mainframes are largely
decommissioned after limited use and neither I nor you have the millions of
dollars to get them up and running (maybe you do).

It is like the progress in our society.  People have more things and can do more
travelling but they are becoming less and less powerful with respect to each
other.
