CentOS 4U2 timing. -- Cell != PowerPC 64

That's a good link, but even he doesn't know what the final
ISA will look like.
I also don't think he realizes that the inprecise nature of
the vector units will limit the potential of the Cell for
many scientific/engineering applications. 19GFLOPS is great,
unless you actually need precision.
E.g., you could _never_ use the Cell for Computational Fluid
Dynamics (CFD), which was one of the first and most linearly
scaling applications for Linux clusters.
