I saw this link the other day [1], is anyone else looking into making a Gentoo ISO for the PS3? I took a look at the programming examples[2] (it's all in 'CellSDK11.iso') for the Cell BE on Linux. Modding the OpenGL/AL libraries, as well as ffmpeg, etc to take advantage of the Cell's 7 128bit vector processing SPEs would really produce some spectacular results. The PS3 could be used as a MythTV frontend, a USRP/GnuRadio [3] platform, a Blender development box, a PovRay [4] render box, and whole host of other stream processors... Jason.
