  1. Big Blue was on an IBM super computer.


  2. True, Deep Blue was not the software per se, it was the actual computer itself, and was capable of evaluating 200 million positions per second.

    Deep Blue was retired by IBM after the machine defeated Kasparov.  The program which ran on Deep Blue  is not available commercially.

    You can read about some of the specs of Deep Blue at:

    Just an incredible machine.

    I think that Rybka is probably considered to be the strongest commercially available software today... Rybka is a total beast that has blown away a number of top human Grandmasters, while rarely losing even a game.

    Don't play this thing unless you enjoy being destroyed, lol.
