Seymour Cray
The founder of {Cray Research} and designer of several of their supercomputers.
Cray has been a charismatic yet somewhat reclusive figure. He began Cray Research in Minnesota in 1972. In 1988, Cray moved his {Cray-3} project to Colorado Springs. The next year, Cray Research spun it off to create {Cray Computer}. In 1989, Cray left Cray Research and started Cray Computer Corporation in Colorado Springs.
His quest to build a faster computer using new-generation materials failed in 1995, and his bankruptcy cost half a billion dollars and more than 400 jobs. The company was unable to raise $20 million needed to finish the {Cray-4} and filed for bankruptcy in March 1995.
In the summer of 1996, Cray started a Colorado Springs-based company called {SRC Computers, Inc.} "We think we'll build computers, but who knows what kind or how," Cray said at the time. "We'll talk it over and see if we can come up with a plan."
On 1996-09-22, aged 70, Cray broke his neck in a car accident. Su
