    Yeah I've seen it once live, and even back on TV when I didn't have internet yet, but there was a show in German TV called "GigaTV" (they still have a practically dead news website iirc), where they did that weekly, Tuesday evenings I believe.

    I find it amusing that Ketchup has better performance than some commercial thermal pastes :p

    My last Pentium, under load, put out nearly as much heat as my furnace vent (and sounded like a blow dryer). I suspect it would have made a fine grill.
