Complete with minaturised freon cooling system? :-)

We're hopefully picking up our first Cray over the next few weeks (sadly I 
think it's an EL98 though, not the iconic horseshoe monster! :-)

Wroughton have a Cray 1a and a Cray 2 though, so we have our eye on one of 
those...

I'm back in Minnesota in a few weeks' time - must try and get to the Cray 
museum this time around.

Of course what I *really* want is some Connection Machines hardware for sheer 
coolness factor!

Am I off topic yet? ;)

cheers

Jules
