The IBM/Sony/Toshiba jointly developed Cell microprocessor is essentially a supercomputer on a chip. Cell features a multi-core design with high-speed communications capabilities that vastly improve graphics and rich-media applications, delivering in many cases 10 times the performance of chips used in personal computers. IBM Analysis Engineer Tami Vogel holds a prototype of the new Cell microprocessor, which is expected to transform consumer electronics and digital entertainment.
