In a previous life (I mean lab) I worked on a SPP1200 with 32procs, and a
C3600 (or something like that) which was a "proper" convex (Vector GaAs
technology). The SPP had a very neat case, and the thing that everyone
remmebered were the actual LEDs on the sides, big about a 2 inches each
leds that formed a column on the side and moved with the load, think of a
BeBox on steroids. Neat machine, crappy bandwidth though...
