Hi Mark, I'm not claiming to be an authority on the matter, but I beg to differ. Name me an EGF 7-dan that's not professional level. And then explain how come they are listed among players that are anywhere from 1p to 5p in different Asian countries. I used to be an EGF 6-dan and have beaten

My understanding of the PlayStation is that it's a Cell architecture, with one main CPU and six auxilary processing units with limited capability. Of course you don't need much for something to do MC playouts, so it seems a very suitable architecture. So 8 PS3s gives a total of 56 CPU's.
