Was this really necessary? Even all the threads about this quite plainly and obviously stated that while the Cell BE successor was officially stopped production, that did not mean the PS3 or other devices could not use a revised Cell. All they have to do is commission IBM to design it. The Cell architecture and aspects of the Cell will be used in future IBM products, but IBM will not be creating new "Cells". And since MikeB as well as his friends need some reassurance for their misunderstandings I'll clarify once more: This means they won't be making a DIRECT Cell successor with DIRECT Nomenclature (ie PoweXCell32) by themselves. Others can still have them design one for use. IBM will also be making new products using the ideas and architecture and elements of the Cell but they will not be Cell clones or successors. That's why it fits into the "Cell family" since they will share basic similarities but still be very different.

What a waste of time and a non-news story, MikeB.

You strike me as a very condescending angry person over a simple informational thread simply meant to clear up confusion to those who are interested.

 

I guess you just have to know and understand, MikeB.  Unfortunately, I do.

I dont need to know anybody. I respond to the posters post. Not my idea of who or what they are in my head.

Then if you don't need to know anybody, why are you trying to analyze and label me?  Is not what you put some idea of who or what I am that you formed in your head?  Perhaps next time reply to the thread topic rather than to my post which was clearly not directed towards you.

Im not, i bolded what you said in your post that leads me to believe that. I responded to this post right here and not your posting history.

The first bolded is a condescending statement of superiority. "ill explain this to you simpletons". The second bolded is sort of a mean angry statement by calling something that many people have found beneficial a "waste of time"
