I used to wonder what happened to Cray after they got bought by SGI.  I
remember my SFState CS professor telling us that back when he was a
working programmer, Cray had ads with the tagline, 'computes an infinite
loop in 14 seconds'

Apparently they still make computers as Cray(tm).  From this article, it
sounds like they are more of a services company now though.  They talk to
some customer, and say OK what do you need to do?  Then they build them a
custom supercomputer.  Sometimes out of Cray stuff, and sometimes a
cluster of Dell Poweredge servers running RedHat 7.2.

For some reason it seems weird to me that Cray sells redhat boxes.
