You obviously don't watch what goes on at places like ICC/FICS...
'Weak' players (<=1400 FICS/ICC rating) can and DO occasionally win/draw against
even the strongest computers - even at blitz chess.  I did not say it happened
often, but it DOES happen.

How strong of a player are you?  Have you NEVER won/drawn a game against your
computer?

Sheesh...
