The IBM Cell processor in the PS3 is unique beast, similar in many ways to a PPC970 but with enough subtle (and some not-so-subtle) differences that the port would likely need to be overseen by someone familiar with such undertakings. This is not to predict that NetBSD 4.0 will or won't support it -- that could reasonably be asked on a NetBSD list -- but be aware that it may turn out to be a bigger job than one might initially expect. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
