Depends on what you mean with "PlayStation 3 online"?dodo3 said:Do you think Sony going to use Cell servers to power PlayStation 3 online?
Just for example, would you mind finding the dictionary you read that the definition of "supercomputing" has to - without exception - refer to DP calculations?
PC-Engine said:How about you finding a supercomputer that uses SP for actual supercomputing work?
This announcement is pure BS and marketing spin to make it sound like this these superduper TFLOPS are actually useful for supercomputing. It seems you are the only one on this board who actually WANTS to believe this marketing BS scrambling to its defense.

Sony could end world hunger and find a cure for AIDS and he still would downplay them
