(Plus PS3 has only 7 SPUs and its has lower clocks.)
Same clock and PPE/VMX wasn't taken into account for this test.
8 SPEs x 25.6 GFlops = 204.8 Glops. The PS3 Cell as a whole is ~218 GFlops.
In any case the article is accurate, only your conclusions are wrong. The main thing to take notice of in that article is really that the Cell is able to achieve near its full potential, unlike most other CPUs.
