Subject: Fruit 2.2 Observations

I have mixed feelings about Fruit2.2.It can play some very ugly positional moves
that engines like Fritz and Shredder would never play.Maybe this is the new
chess!
However,when it comes to the endgame it's another story.I often see it come out
of the middlegame worse and then proceed to outplay its opponent in the endgame.
It has not fared well against Shredder in the Nunn (20 game) test and loses
every time on the black side of the French C19.Shredder also loses from this
position nearly every time  against most strong engines to the 'Greek gift'.
Testing continues...
