IBM Putting 'Watson' in Jeopardy! Comments

If chess could have been won by simple brute force then it wouldn't have taken IBM seven years from their first attempt to beat the human champion. Deep blue had to decide without knowing for certain what the best outcome would be.

I don't know what the Jeopardly questions are like but if they're similar to cryptic crossword clues then I think IBM has a fair chance. It'll be interesting to see how much data storage Watson uses.
