I wonder which chess software program they used?
Perhaps, they will let GM's play against it ?!

There you go .. must have been one of the open source programs then.The only problem for Topalov was that there is no software that runs on such hardware. For Dnevnik Topalov revealed that he has collected a team of computer professionals to modify a program to work on the Blue Gene.

It must be more than 4 times faster than Deep Blue.
In 1997 the fastest supercomputer had a performance of 1 TFlops,
according to top500.org.
Now in 2010 the number one is more than 1000 times faster.
