Dear god, I hope it doesn't become mainstream. There's nothing wrong with it, and it's a very capable piece of hardware. That said, can you imagine the anarchy with software developers (not just game developers) who have been programming a certain way for twenty years suddenly have to completely relearn everything they knew in order to make products for the mass market?

 

Multi core is the future.  The Cell will always be ahead of X86.  Also x86 is pretty archaic.  I have read some pretty interesting news however.

 

There is an initiative to have a program that runs X86 code and dynamically convert it into cleaner, streamlined, and more efficient code for cell to read.  Essentially acting as a translator.
