It certainly seems that Fritz 7.0.0.2 is significantly better against (most)
other computers than 7.0.0.1 was.

I wonder if we can infer from this that 7.0.0.2 would also play better against a
top grandmaster than 7.0.0.1 would have.

My gut feeling is that it would probably be better against top humans too, but
what scientific argument could I use to back that up?
