Deep Blue Junior was recently >thrashed 2-0 by Rebel, I understand - in which case it could certainly not have >lived with the company of players listed above. I read that this was not exactly deep blue Junior It used less than 1 second per move and it played at the same time against many opponents. I do not know if it is truth.

I do not understand the stupid decision of IBM to create this bad impression by playing with a version of deep blue Junior that was weaker than the commercials. Uri
