1 I saw this link the other day [1], is anyone else looking into making a
2 Gentoo ISO for the PS3?

4 I took a look at the programming examples[2] (it's all in
5 'CellSDK11.iso') for the Cell BE on Linux. Modding the OpenGL/AL
6 libraries, as well as ffmpeg, etc to take advantage of the Cell's 7
7 128bit vector processing SPEs would really produce some spectacular
8 results.

10 The PS3 could be used as a MythTV frontend, a USRP/GnuRadio [3]
11 platform, a Blender development box, a PovRay [4] render box, and whole
12 host of other stream processors...
