I just aim to get devs to properly investigate and evaluate the Cell, it's use is beyond just the PS3 though, I think it would be great if we would eventually see consumer targetted PC upgrade boards like we saw with 3DFX add-on graphics boards in the past.
My main interest in the PS3 is due to the Cell and not the other way around, although I do credit Sony for adding a Blu-Ray drive and making the console as reliable and highly specced as they did.
IMO they have only helped developers to become inefficient and more platform dependent. BeOS was a good effort towards more efficiency, sadly Microsoft used its monopoly to stop this effort.
This is what I call efficiency, the new AmigaOS 4.0 running on decades old Amigas even supporting ECS graphics from the 80s (oldskool assembler optimised in key core parts to provide a nice end user experience):
