Cfp3157's "Sorry, I went to dinner." edges:

Since this isn't a normal kind of match-up, I'm going to spend more time analyzing the X-factors like you ask us to do.

Skill with Technology: While HAL 9000 is an extremely successful computer system, it was eventually defeated by those on board. Meanwhile, Anonymous has hacked into government computers. Edge: Anonymous

Cyber Dominance: I view this as even because, since HAL 9000 works alone an controls the defensive position, Anonymous has been able to cooperate enoough to organize a cyber battle against gangs and the government alike. Edge: Even

Computer System: HAL 9000 is the perfect computer. He is smart enough not only to beat any human in a chess game, but he can also overtake it's human controller and feel emotions like anger. Edge: HAL 9000

Psyological Warfare: While HAL 9000 is a computer, he has been shown to be able to feel human emotions, including fear. The Anonymous group shouldn't have a prblem, seeing as even if they fail, they cannot be harmed by HAL 9000. Edge: Anonymous

Dedication: The HAL 9000 is a computer. He cannot be detered until the breaking point. Meanwhile, Anonymous could abandon the cause if they felt that they had lost. Edge: HAL 9000

Will finish later.
