Kasparov vs. X3D Fritz

The first game in the Chess match between Gary Kasparov and X3D Fritz has ended in a draw. The human vs. machine chess matches are always interesting, although the sponsorship from 3D Technology company X3D has given the match a strange twist: Kasparov has to play the match wearing 3D glasses. I’m not sure whether this is supposed to help Kasparov or it’s a handicap for the Chess Grandmaster.

Apparently, he gets to watch Jaws 3-D in the lunch break.
