Many people think Fritz 7 is currently the top engine, but that only means that Fritz 7 is capable to beat the other ones often. Assume that's right: it doesn't imply that Fritz is best to analyse positions. Concerning commercial engines, my advice is: if possible, don't use only an engine, purchase two or more of them. Personally, I prefer to analyse positions using Junior 7 and Chess Tiger 14. Junior is a speed monster, analysing at 15 plyes or more in one minute or less. Tiger, with its human-like style of play, is probably best understanding static positional features. You were asking about commercial engines. May I add that there are today many phenomenally strong freely available engines. You don't need to spend a buck to analyse positions well: just download Winboard and -say- Crafty, and you have enough software to do the work.
