A visual history of Cray

John West of InsideHPC has taken the history of one of the original HPC companys, Cray, and plotted it on a huge timeline of its ups and downs.

Cray is an old company, spanning more than 30 years, so there is a lot of stuff to cover.  I started by tracing out the product announcements, then added CEOs over the years, acquisitions and mergers, the top position secured by a Cray computer in the November edition of every Top500 list since 1993, and a few items of personal interest to me. If you have an addition or correction, drop a comment on the post.
