Maybe all the delay and the switch to pcc for xbox2 is because they knew about cell just as well as apple did. and its not going to be some easy take over its going to be a fresh start for full out os warfare.
Sorry that this is kind of off subject

When they say multiple OSes they don't mean being ISA independent. They mean it could run two OSes coded for it, say AIX and redhat at the same time.
