I would agree. Ever since I read the Cell articles on Ars Technica, I've been drooling over the idea of a Cell-powered PowerMac/PowerBook. Seems that even if the Cell doesn't scale to the clock speeds Apple's looking for, they could just do 2, 4, or 8-way SMP with it. Assuming it actually scales as well as they say it should, anyway.
Similar story: The first time I ever used Linux was Red Hat 5.2. It stayed on the machine about a week, and it was back to Windows 98. I jumped between Windows 2000, 98, SuSE, and Red Hat. I installed Slackware 8.1 a couple years ago, and have never changed it since. I manhandled Slackware onto a 33MHz, 4MB 486 and used it as a dialup router. Greatest Linux distribution ever. Best wishes to you, Patrick... here's hoping you beat this thing.
So, please explain to me how outlawing gay marriage would result in fewer gays.
Additionally, you are failing to realize two things: a) it's really only a sin if you happen to believe it is (I'd be willing to bet that Buddhists, for example, have a very different idea of sin), and that b) it's America's job to punish/judge the sinners.
Taking it a bit further, should we ban Buddhism since Buddhists don't accept the Christian God (in direct violation of the Ten Commandments)? Or perhaps we should ban Hinduism and every other polytheistic religion as well. Bottom line is, let people do what they want (with the obvious exception of killing each other, perhaps), and leave the judgement in the hands of God.

But it doesn't mean that it's got adequate performance for a modern desktop system.

They could use more than one.
