I could be wrong, but don't the cell processors in the PS3 only have seven working cores? Wouldn't that be "56" cores? Where is the "64" coming from? Are they counting using the graphics chip also? Do DSP of sound cards count as logical processors?
I am curious about the performance of this verses a standard cluster.
