Air Force to buy 300 PS3s

GAMEPRO: US Air Force to buy 300 PS3s for 'technology assessment'
"The Air Force Research Laboratory is conducting a technology assessment of certain cell processors," reads the request for proposal. "The processors in the Sony PlayStation 3 are the only brand on the market that utilises the specific cell processor characteristics needed for this program at an acceptable cost."

... this isn't the first time the PS3 is being used for non-gaming tasks. Participating system owners can already have their PS3 crunch cancer research numbers when idle.
COOL.
