Hey y'all ... I just found a web-based version of
a lecture
Gordon Bell gave about Seymour Cray in 1997. It's wonderful.

There are detailed notes under many of the slides. The last slide
is hilarious and kind of touching.
Often misquoted... as Al Kossow can testify to, the primary use
of the Cray was for mold-flow analysis. Ever wonder why Mac
plastic cases don't crack as much as other trash?
