looks like version gives you a little more info:

switch:admin#> firmwareshow
Appl Primary/Secondary Versions

FOS v6.1.0c
v6.1.0c

switch:admin> version
Kernel: 2.6.14.2
Fabric OS: v6.1.0c
Made on: Fri Jun 13 16:26:18 2008

is it referenced in documentation as two different things ? Typically when people talk about switch version and fabric version ..they are talking about the same thing.
