a couple of naive questions to be updated on the state of the art of computer Go in 2010. What's the level currently achieved by computer Go software(s)/hardware(s) against human player in 19x19 without any handicap stones ? On which platform is it running ? And finally, circa how much improvement can be gained by implementing a given software version in hardware like FPGA ?
