Fruit plays most certainly not humanlike but unspectacular. I agree that it
plays positionally fine but I think the strength of Fruit is that it plays very
balanced. It has no big weaknesses and plays not speculative like Junior or
Shredder. The playing style can be described as boring and coputerish but that
is the way to score your points. Fruit often refutes an unsound atack from great
attackers like Junior or Shredder (like in the WCCC).

kind regards
