+ more info about 1994: Intel World Chess Express Challenge blitz tournament to add : Munich, Germany May 19–20, 1994
...17 GMs with an Elo average of 2625, an one computer running Fritz 3, played a round robin blitz tournament in Munich, Germany. The hardware was an Olivetti with the latest Intel processor, a Pentium 90 MHz, one of only three such powerful machines in Europe. To everyone's surprise Fritz beat GMs Chernin, Anand, Cvitan, Gelfand, Wojtkiewicz, Hjartarson, Kasparov, Kramnik and Short (in that order) to finish equal first with Kasparov. In the playoff a very determined Kasparov demolised the machine 4:1.

+ Kasparov vs Genius, the revenge in 1995 in Cologne:
Revenge was on Garry’s mind when he played his first computer match against Genius in Cologne. The previous year, in 1994, Genius, a computer program..., had defeated the world champion... So Garry came to the 1995 match hoping to avenge the previous year’s defeat. It was a two-game match. Kasparov started off with White and opened 1.c4. Genius turned it into a QGD Slav defense. This game is a wonderful illustration of how a Grandmaster can slowly but surely beat a computer. Move by move, Garry gained the initiative and Genius lost the game. He drew dutifully with Black and won the match. He had gotten his revenge.
