Rumor has it that Cray Computer (note: different company than Cray
Research, makers of the "letter" Crays) has contracted with NCAR for a
Cray-3.  The first contract, with Lawrence Livermore Labs (NERSC???
Memory fails), fell through due to delivery problems.

Someone at SDSC mentioned to me that Seymour Cray is already on to
designing the Cray-4.  Comments from CCC?
