Saying any PC CPU can do what the Cell does clearly shows you don't know how either PCs or the PS3 works....

No, you don't understand....
Wikipedia
Turing completeness, named after
Alan Turing, is significant in that every real-world design for a computing device can be simulated by a
universal Turing machine. The
Church-Turing thesis states that this is a law of nature--- that a universal Turing machine can, in principle, perform any calculation that
any other
programmable computer is capable of. Obviously, this says nothing about the effort required to write the
program, or the time it may take for the machine to perform the calculation, or any abilities the machine may possess that have nothing to do with computation.
Btw theres a significant difference between peak and achieveable flops.
