There was a T-shirt that sold on ebay recently that
says:
"My other computer is a Cray"..;) Strangely enough, Apple did have
some deal with Cray to offer Macs as front ends to Crays...

Why is this so strange? I've seen Mac's used as intelligent terminals on a
Honeywell DPS-8 Mainframe, and I use one as the front-end to my OpenVMS
cluster.

Why is this so strange? I've seen Mac's used
as intelligent terminals on a
Honeywell DPS-8 Mainframe, and I use one as the front-end to my OpenVMS
cluster.
And Apple offered software to allow a Mac to remotely administer Apple
Network Servers, which run AIX, through a Control Panel-like interface.

It's not so strange. I have a diskless PS/2 Model 55SX with a 3270
Connect Adapter/A w/ROM onboard which makes this box a pretty nice 3278.
