World chess champion Garry Kasparov, visible on a monitor, rests his head in his hands during game six of the chess match against IBM supercomputer Deep Blue on Sunday. The computer made chess history when it defeated Kasparov for an overall victory in their six-game rematch, the first time a computer has triumphed over a reigning world champion in a classical match. Grandmaster Ilya Gurevich said the game was "a stunner. Kasparov got wiped off the board." (Story on A2).
