The Grape DR integrates into a host system on a PCI express slot and performs specific tasks such as floating-point addition or multiplication. Despite the fact that the processor is clocked at only 500 Mhz, it is able to calculate over 512 billion floating-point operations per second, more than double the 256 billion operations that IBM’s Cell Processor can theoretically achieve.

This means it will either be revolutionary and bring with it whole new computing applications...or it will be a total flop. IBM/Sony/Toshiba have made a gutsy move which I sincerely hope will pay off. We need some real advancement in this stagnant/innovationless industry. The Cell is a unique design.
