GPUs are good for graphics applications, the Cell processor is merely ok.

if you consider 36+ billion shader/operation's per-sec as just merely ok !

wow. you do know the xbox360 main GPU only does 48 billion shader opp's/sec without optimizing the code for  it's unified design.

 

Shader ops were never the problem. Think about the fixed function parts of the rendering pipeline...
