Aright, I've checked the URLs, but there's no information as to what hardware
was used, which opening sets of positions were used, etc. The difference between
Fritz's and Fruit's ratings is so negligible that I don't think it's a big
achievement for Fruit. Which nunn opening test was used as a basis? I can only
tell you as a player that I'm not happy with the way Fruit plays. We've seen it
long ago in Tigran Petrosyan's games and his era is far, far away. Today's chess
is certainly more dynamic and aggressive, therefore Fritz's or Hiarcs's styles
tend to be more appealing.
