Clip from report:<br><br> "Though a single 3.2 GHz cell processor can deliver over 200 GFLOPS,
whereas the Sony PS3 configuration delivers approximately 150 GFLOPS,
the approximately tenfold cost difference per GFLOP makes the Sony PS3
the only viable technology for HPC applications."<br><br><br>-- <br>Jeremy Baker<br>PO 297<br>Johnson, VT<br>05656<br>
