PS3-XBOX 360 as Linux Graphics workstations

[lfeder]

The graphic engines on the PS3 and Xbox 360 is simply state of the art.

The RSX on the PS3 is like, wow. 
The RSX graphic performance is greater than two NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultras. 

A single GeForce 6800 Ultra alone, is a truly state of the art card for the PC. 
Having better than 2 of these cards…that’s some true serious graphics power.

So I was thinking, of using PS3’s as Linux graphic workstations. 
Is any work being done on this when the PS3 is available?

I figure for the price, and you avoid any major bottlenecks, you’d end up with a 
Near-supercomputer level graphic workstation for less than an average PC.
