I didn't say that, but being different (like for example the Amiga was with its powerful custom chips and pre-emptive multitasking) often introduces learning curves for developers and the need to adapt legacy engines accordingly. Regarding the GPU comparison, it's not like you could come to such a conclusion like that (both GPUs have their strenghts and weaknesses).
The Cell (and Blu-Ray and default harddrive) has already showed off its worth in many PS3 exclusives and it will become more and more apparent as time goes on. Just like was the case for the Amiga vs the Atari ST.
