Alex: I read your reply and with all due respect it hasn't changed my opinion. I think Cray was in its death throes when SGI bought it and they have done nothing to revive it. The Japanese now produce massively parallel supercomputers at a far cheaper price than SGI. SGI got lucky in the anti-dumping case once, but they won't get lucky twice. As a general purpose machine Cray is simply too costly, thats why I said SGI's future is only in the limited (albeit huge) graphic intensive field....animation, molecular modeling, design engineering, etc...
Very large enterprise computing needs are migrating to service providers like IBM who provide mainframe and all logistices.
