Wait, what? April 1st? lol j/k

Interesting. If the Cell is used for Toshiba computers, especially laptops, they are SCREWED. Why? My first laptop was a Toshiba, and GOD how I hated that thing. It was their Qosmio models and the model was discontinued before I purchased it. It had HORRIBLE ventilation and overheated in no time. It had horrible performance, and if the Cell is used in them, expect the computers to really malfunction by being overdone in processing power and dying.

The Cell will never be used in laptops, because then it wouldn't be able to run Windows.

 

THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE WRONG!!!!! LINUX DOMINATION FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

On a more serious note, if non-Windows operating systems such as BSD, Linux and OpenSolaris become more popular, computers will not need to use the x86 architecture and so consumers will be able to choose one that fits their needs. I could use a Cell laptop for example.

The PS3's Cell is just one version. One could easily be made for PCs, where the main core is x86.
