Kasparov v Deep Blue - 10 years after

A regular reader sent me a link to an article concerning the Kasparov v Deep Blue match, and what the match really meant.
The article is here.

(Thanks to Jonathon for this link)

That article is a bit of a stretch, in particular the way they try to argue that the way Kasparov evaluates isn't that different to the way a computer evaluates.

A computer examines millions of positions a second. Humans only examine a few positions per second, if that.

The human "evaluation function" is far, far more complex than any computer.
