Fruit 2.2.1 is the most impressive analysis partner I have found thus far. I do not own Fritz 9 so I cannot comment on that program. Fruit 2.2.1 is very reliable IMHO in terms of is evaluation. Shredder 9, while a wonderful program overall, has evaluations that seem to vary widely from one move to the next. Fruit 2.2.1 seems to do a better job of assessing the 'true' eval of the position. Of course there are exceptions to everything and some may take exception with this but that has been my experience. Fruit is not always fastest to spot very deep tactics, but it does find them in a LOT of the cases (frequently a few seconds/minutes later than Shredder 9). It also runs on Linux which is very nice to have as an alternative to Microsoft OS's. Roy
