From the blog post:

  These early numbers show up to 60x speed improvement 
  over the current version of Google Chrome.

Hm... I don't need my browser to be 60x faster if it can't figure out that (60/1) < (35/.5).

View on HN

Works for me in Chrome:

  javascript:alert(((60/1) < (35/.5)) ? "true" : "false"); // "true"

Or am I missing something more meta?

I think the point is that "up to 60x" in the Chromium Blog post should have been "up to 70x" or "over 60x in some cases." (But actually this depends on how the 0.5 number was rounded...)
