Prime Numbers

[tazzduke]

Also Nick is on a roll, find more SGS primes, but then again he has the firepower.

I have crunched in the vicinity of 9500 PPSE workunits, across all my machines, still no Prime.

I have now shutoff, cause when my pendings come through, I will have clocked up 5 million on that subproject.

Cheers

Well done Dingo!! 

I too have been crunching SGS. I've found 3 primes in 3 days. 
Only baby primes though as you said.

I've been chatting to Nick. He's kinda switched to the dark side and engaged cloud computing, hence his massive numbers. He wants to overtake Vaughan and has the crunching bug BAD!!!!!!  LOL

Yeah, everyone seems to be smashing either the SGS or GFN subprojects, that's what primes are coming up lately.

Wow!!! Nick is smashing it!!

I found another Prime but not quite big enough to be my best.

I found a GFN17 Mega Prime and it is my biggest prime to date.  This is what it looks like as a number.
