The PS3 does not have a Cell with 7 SPUs. The Cell in the PS3 has 8 SPUs, with 1 reserved to the firmware/OS, leaving 7 for developers to utilize.

The PS3 does not have a Cell with 7 SPUs. The Cell in the PS3 has 8 SPUs, with 1 reserved to the firmware/OS, leaving 7 for developers to utilize. The Cell has 8 on the die, the PS3 uses 7 (one lost to manufacturing error or purposely deactivated) with one reserved for the OS, leaving 6 left for developers.
