A Private Home For Retired Supercomputers

Posted by timothy on from the they-rest-for-a-bit dept.

Steve writes "Every geek has wanted to play with a Cray supercomputer. Hexus.net had the rare opportunity to meet up with a man who has something of a fetish for collecting them! They got a look at some of the amazing kit Armari - a systems integration company - have in their possession. Ever wanted to see inside a Cray T3D MPP, or maybe the gargantuan machine that is the T90? Now is your chance!"

    This is a guy's PRIVATE, PERSONAL Cray collection:

    It has to be the most comprehensive collection of Cray systems in the world (including Cray's facility in Chippawa falls?).

    (Please do not post it on the front page of slashdot without digibarns permission). Those pictures are quite a bit outdated, as he no longer lives in that state and has added more systems since then.

    I believe he had over 11 before. He donated a few to someone, I forget who.
