Don't know about magic number 2900 elo, but my impression is that hardware those days is more important that all the improvement un the chess logics. It could be even (something that you probably want to say) that if the logic of Deep Blue will be run on slow machine (take old 286) it could appear as humble as our old Sargon. I do expect that all the games will start naking 1000000 nodes per second in the next two years. Then every game will be, at least, 2200 to start with. Leonid.
