Hello Christian,
Of course a lot depends on the conditions under which the match was played.
Also in a 24 game match it's impossible to separate 2 engines as closely rated
as the two Fritz engines.  As I said before in my first 82 game match vs Chess
Tiger 13.0 the new Fritz did better than any other version before.  I just
finished a 50 game match vs Junior 6.  Fritz 6e won 27.5 - 22.5.  So of course
it's not a major step up in strength (for free) but I believe it may be a small
improvement.  Only many more games will tell.  Also testing an engine against
itself is my last option since I'm more interested in how it performs against
the other top programs.
