hello Matt,

I just played a little 1 min bullet match
first free rybka beta 32 bit - Fritz6.
result was as one could expect:
rybka wins +48, =10, -12.

You should get something like this, when there is no learning involved
and with neutral book(s), and with correct setup.
(Even onesided learning and books should not make Fritz win the match.)

I think that the fact that Fruit does look like a bad blitzer to you
is based on wrong setup, too, or if you use the free version 2.1:
then it is not so much stronger than Fritz6, so that a close result is no big
surprise.
(The Fruit-derivative Toga is very strong in blitz and some better than the free
Fruit 2.1.)
