I would speculate, and it is _real_ speculation, that it was in the 2750-2850 range. Based on lots of things including deep thought performing at 2600 over 25 games to get the Fredkin 2 prize, plus beating kasparov. Whether it is stronger than Kasparov or not is a good question. It is clearly close enough to worry about. No, I doubt any program would win more than an occasional rare game vs DB at blitz. "scratchy" played on ICC a while and had the best win/lose record of all time. That was only deep thought.
