May as well just say "Keep pumping out the shoddy Xbox ports coz the Cell is being put out to pasture" For these reasons I doubt the announcent is accurate. |
Well, the POWER7 is a cell as well.
It's possible that it is still programmed the same way, but additionally it can handle traditional code much better than the current cell can.
But, yeah. I agree with your post.
