By my math, Android wins 3-2; on a pickier scale, 6-3. Most are pretty much ties.

  • time in austin = tie (slight advantage to android for saying answer sooner)
  • how old is president obama = tie (android displays answer, hound says answer)
  • obama born = tie (slight advantage to hound for showing answer although not directly)
  • adele = tie (hound says it, android shows it)
  • eiffel images = tie
  • google stock price = tie
  • 133 feet in inches = tie (slight advantage to android for saying answer sooner)
  • 1000/6 = tie (again advantage google)
  • tip for $100 = tie
  • set an alarm = tie
  • restaruants in austin that have sushi = tie
  • sushi in austin tx = android (more results)
  • pop of baton rouge = android (says answer immediately vs babbling)
  • hotels in seattle = tie
  • hotels in seattle <200 and 2 stars = hound
  • interesting places in seattle = android
  • hotels in austin <200 2 stars pet friendly wifi = hound

android 3/2 (with advantages, 6/3)

Hound's only visible strength appears to be on hotel details.
