		In reply to Fritz's "Ruy Lopez," a sequence of opening moves favored by Garry Kasparov and Bobby Fischer, Kramnik adopted a defense known as the Berlin Wall, appropriate for a match against a German computer.

		When Fritz resumed play, it was running on only one processor, instead of the usual eight, and yet for the first time in the match it did not botch the endgame.

	Kramnik - Deep Fritz :: Game3
		Although the position Fritz reached out of the venerable Scotch Opening was a good one, it was just the type of strategic maneuvering position that computers don't understand well and that world champions understand very well indeed.
		It was well worth the time because after the simplifications Fritz was left in a passive position that suited Kramnik from his head down 1.95m to his toes.
		The Fritz team has the consolation of having outplayed Kramnik in the opening stages with the Scotch Opening that is favored by former world champion Garry Kasparov.

	Deep Fritz Draws: Are Humans Getting Smarter, or Are Computers Getting Stupider?
		Deep Fritz uses a network of only eight personal computers, so the hardware is equivalent to 256 1997-class personal computers.
		Compare that to Deep Blue, which used 256 specialized chess processors, each of which were about 100 times faster than 1997 personal computers (of course, only for computing chess minimax).
		However, the reason for this is the use of specialized hardware in Deep Blue, and the lack of it in Deep Fritz.

		The third match lasted five hours and was decided, experts said, by an unexpected 18th move from Kramnik that saw Deep Fritz immediately forced to weaken its position, after the computer had had the better of him in the opening exchanges.
		Deep Fritz 7 is based on standard hardware and thus scans about 3 million positions per second, compared with the custom-built Deep Blue's 100 million positions.
		But Deep Blue used to waste a lot of that parallel processing computing power on duplicate positions, according to Deep Fritz's developer, ChessBase GmbH in Germany.
