Uncharacteristically lavished praise on Sony's upcoming PS3 and its cell processor, insinuating that it would almost be miraculous to outdo it.
Ummm Yea but did not Sony say the PS3 was not using a CELL type chip! The whole CELL chip would not work to well in a Console! In other words all the info that came out about a year ago was total crap! A CELL system as used in super computer will just not work in a Console you will never see the type of online speeds to you will need to make it work in 20 years let alone 3.

The Whole CELL based thing came around cuss Sony is going to use a CELL type net work in most of it's TV's DVD's and Other type systems so they can talk to each other. I do happen to think the new IBM CPU in the PS3 will be far better then any thing else your see! But as the Xbox shows you that don't mean a god damn thing the CPU in PC's MAC's and Console's is doing far less work then before, no the race will be all about the GPU (again).

And hell as most will tell you who the hell needs a 64 128 or even a 256 bit! more bit do not always give you more speed.
