I just want to add that Fruit 2.1 is anyway still within the error bars
of place number 1. (So book conclusions are much too soon)
For having included multiple versions of programs against a single one,
just search the forum, Dann Corbit e.g. explained it several times...
(Imagine e.g. what happens if Fruit doesn't like especially Fritz versions)
