Cray CTO Says Cray Computers Are Great

Posted by michael on from the couldn't-be-any-other-way dept.

Jan Stafford writes "Linux clusters can not offer the same price-performance as supercomputers, according to Paul Terry, chief technology officer of Burnaby, British Columbia-based Cray Canada. In this interview, Terry explains that assertion and describes Cray's new Linux-based XD1 system, which will be priced competitively with other types of high-end Linux clusters."

    Ok I messed up, it's not really a dupe per se, just Terry repeating himself (So perhaps that counts as a dupe? No?). But heck, I guess moderators don't RTFA either, so I welcome the karma :)
