The level of anti-Cell FUD in this thread is absolutely staggering. How many of you have looked at the CBE SDK? How many of you have ever written a single piece of multithreaded code in your lives?

Care to enlighten us ?

In fact you don't seem to understand the complexity of coding difference between muti-threaded programming model (on which Xbox360's CPU is better suited than Cell), and distributed parallel model one (on which Cell is way better suited than Xbox360's CPU).


What leads you to believe that I don't understand the difference?


 This sentence : "How many of you have looked at the CBE SDK"

Maybe i am mistaken (it could have been another poster), but i have read posts from you showing me that you envision the programming this CPU as if it was a "simple" multi-threaded one. "You give the sound to SPE 3 and 5, the AI to SPE 2, etc".

Distributed parallel programming is more complex.
