Ken KutaragiKen Kutaragi has been reaffirming his stance that the Playstation 3 will be much more than just a games console. In an interview with Electronic Engineering Times Asia, the 'Father of Playstation' said that although the PS3 will be sold as a game console, what will in fact enter the home is a 'Cell-based computer'.

He continued 'The model image for the Cell-based network may be the Internet: servers around the world form one virtual 'computer,' and each PC accesses it. Application programs can no longer directly access the hardware; instead they will have to be written in high-level, object-oriented language. The Cell processor will completely change the concept of programming. I am sure that a technology revolution is about to occur, not only within Sony but throughout the digital consumer electronics industry."”
