another comparison, how many have we had?, Sony has been working on cell technology for years, they patened it in 2001. I don't think Sony's cell is 64bit, i'm sure its 32bit.

U know what that article is saying, you may buy a PS3, but its not just a PS3 when Cell tv's come out, it will be a tv, when everything else cell comes out it will be everything else. According to this article your house could become a super computer, saying you would have two tv's, two computers, a camcorder, one or two sound systems/stereo's. The possiblities with this tech is increadible. I don't want Microsoft to become a b**** and destroy this technology.

I just hope that Windows will be able to run a Cell.

Right now it will be the cell running windows with emulation, so software is not a problem when cell comes out.
