Dec-03-04  Knight13: It plays like a 2200 rated computer. Every IM or GM can beat this computer for sure.
Dec-03-04  Spassky69: I'm thinking more around 2000. I think I could crush it.
Dec-03-04  sandyobrien: yeah, about 2000.
Dec-03-04  Knight13: I don't think I could crush it but I am sure I can play a draw on this computer, if it's rated 2000. It's year 1982. The computers won't very strong.
Dec-04-04  erasmus: Anybody could crush this computer. All you need is a hammer.
Dec-04-04  Knight13: <erasmus: Anybody could crush this computer. All you need is a hammer.> What we mean is that we beat it easily, not crushing in reality. ;)

  BishopBerkeley: With this game, Mikhail Botvinnik becomes the earliest former World Chess Champion to play Chess against a computer (at least, according to our database). Robert James Fischer had played against a computer earlier, but he was a later champion:

Fischer vs Greenblatt (Computer), 1977

(with two more games against Greenblatt)

  Domdaniel: As a pioneer of chess programming, Botvinnik must have played earlier games against computers. Perhaps not under formal conditions though.
