Kasparov lost to Genius 3 running on a Pentium at London in 1994. It was the Lloyds Bank + Intel grand prix. When the last 16 players met Kasparov with Elo 2808 lost the first game and drew the second. They had 25 min per game. At the quarterfinals Genius 3 won against GM Nikolic (2655) 2-0. At the semifinals Genius 3 lost to GM Anand (2720) 0-2. But that was speed chess even if the Pentium ran with 90 MHz. Kind regards Bernhard >Marc
