Basically, it seems to be a choice between Kasparov and Fritz! Personally I must say that I agree with Kasparov. Computers should not play in such blitz tournaments anymore. We all know that they are too strong for humans now, using these time controls. So what is the point of letting a computer taking part again and again. The real challenge for a computer program is the normal time control: 40 moves in 2 hours. Here it is still a long way before a computer will be clearly stronger than a IGM. For me there is one big topic: Please give us AEGON back! Jeroen
