IBM's new servers use PS3 technology: should gamers care?
The New York Times is reporting that IBM's working on a new line of servers that use their new Cell processor for purposes other than gaming. We all knew this was coming, because IBM's been all over the media with bullish predictions about how the Cell will change computing as we know it today. It'll be paradigm shifting! Mind-blowing! Jaw dropping!
Whether these newfangled servers eventually succeed in the marketplace is almost a non-issue from our perspective here in games land. Some think that the recent spate of glowing press (check the Forbes fluff piece) is all part of a concerted marketing effort to promote the PlayStation 3. Your thoughts?
