It gives a somewhat biased review of DT (Berliner was _not_ a fan of DT as he did his very best to prevent it from playing in the software toolworks tournament it did so well in). It also mentions several IM and a couple of GM opponents (Berliner primarily gives the rated USCF events, and did not include the matches which USCF does not rate if one of the opponents is a computer).. I will dig up the pdf for hsu's book and print it out again to get the names and ratings of the players... it might take a couple of days however so remind me if I forget. The next two days are very busy here..
