Cray-1 Supercomputer Modules

Made by Cray Researchc. 1978Roswell, Georgia

Representative record: the collection's holdings in this category are publicly documented, but this specific object is an illustrative example of the documented type rather than an individually confirmed holding. Logic modules from a Cray-1 — the tower-and-bench supercomputer that defined the form. The collector's holdings span from micros to mainframes, per museum coverage; Cray hardware anchors the big-iron end of that range.
