Tell you what, why don't you point out exactly which part of their statement they should be ashamed of? Here it is again, for your convenience: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Feng-Hsiung Hsu and Murray Campbell, USA: The Deep Blue version, Rebel played in Paderborn, is a special demo version build by IBM, to play hundred of customers in parallel through the Internet. The program runs on a single chip, a thinking time of one second per move (including initialization and independently of the thinking time, set by the user interface), without permanent brain and using a primitive evaluation function. The search depth is thereby limited to 5-6 plies, the extentions in the quiescence search is almost completely disabled. With this limitations, the program should loose to every 486 processor based program. The ICCA has asked permission, to demonstrate Deep Blue Junior in Paderborn. We have made it explicitly clear, that it isn't allowed to play the program against other programs. Either ICCA has violated our conditions of usage, or Ed Schröder has missued this opportunity at will, to make false advertisement for his program. Neither we have the time nor the energy, to react at Schröder's statement. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave
