Memory Board from Cray 1 Supercomputer #38
Old School Computer Geek Porn, ca. 1976
 Ahhh...one of my greatest possessions: An old memory board from a Cray-1 Supercomputer. I found it on eBay for $50 back in 2004, and have since remounted it onto a wooden placard. The supercomputer from which it came from was sold to Lawrence Liver Laboratory for $19 million in the late '70s and was retired in 1990. A man named Tony Cole purchased the machine in 1993 for $10,101.01 and broke it up for resale.DigiBarn Computer Museum: The story of Tony Cole and his Cray Supercomputers |
