When John Sculley ran Apple Computer he said Apple had bought a [Cray] supercomputer for about $14.5 million and was using it to develop its next-generation Apple. Cray's chief executive John Rollwagen said he hadn't wanted Apple to think this was a one-way street. So, he said, "since they were good enough to buy one of our machines, some of us have bought a few of theirs." Rollwagen also said he told Seymour Cray ... about how Apple was using the machine. "There was a pause on the other end of the line," [he] recalls, "and Seymour said, 'That's interesting, because I'm designing the next Cray with an Apple.' "
