What about 'Alex Kan's Chicken Soup'?

HAHAHA, I'd like to see that soup can label! Instead of alphabet noodles it probably only has ones and zeroes.

You thought those were croutons, but they're really intrinsics.

At your taste, my friend... but I think is hot by nature... You don't need to put it in the microwaves before.:) (sorry for my bad english...)

[edit]
I wanted to say that it heats by itself... Hehehe...

What a revolution...

So, boys and girls, here are my latest pictures:

SSE4: I have removed some records to clean up the chart. I have left the original Crunch3r SSSE3 columns for reference and then retained only Jason's original and his latest ports. In the 2 AR bands where there is data from the latest pre-release App version, the improvements over the best that is currently available to us all are 38.7% and 41.6% respectively (note that my sums went a bit awry when I previously calculated percents for the original port - i.e. I accepted what Excel told me and I had an errant "$" symbol in the formula; sorry).


Direct Link

And how's JDW coming along I hear you all ask:
(Note that the V0.2 column on Whale2 represents just one WU so I don't see it as significant that the column is not lower than that for the V0.1 column)


Direct Link

And for SSE3 (still very low number of records here - slower cruncher - and, because of the unfortunate cancelling of all uncrunched earlier WU's there are no reference data in many AR bands):

Or as the US Military calls them, An MRE(Meal Ready to Eat).

Right now I'm just hoping that one of My crunchers(PC3) can keep running at stock cpu speed(2.66GHz) as the fan in the heatsink is failing and getting a new SI-128 SE will take a few days(And no the current heatsink is a different brand), At least the 120mm fan is already here and good to go(no more thrump, thrump soon). Then It'll be back to full speed there in PC3. :D
