From Kaufman's Hiarcs 7.0 review:

Although I suspect that the level of the top computers may be a bit overstated
now due to failure to recalibrate the list based on today's GM level computers,
this should be offset by the severity of Swedish ratings in the past, so my
guess is that the 2567 rating at 200 MHz would hold up in FIDE competition
today, which would imply a FIDE rating over 2600 on today's fast machines.
