When SGI bought Cray they sold what would eventually become the E10K to Sun because they didnt have a need for a large Cray machine based on SPARC processors that wasnt selling well, mostly due to Cray not having any experience in selling in commercial markets.

From what I understand it was a great deal monetarily and heck the stock has performed pretty well since.
