Maybe, however, it would be possible to find a non-completeable
chassis and fix the cooling system, then load it up with Alpha or
Sparc embedded boards and engineer a backplane to connect them.  Then
reverse engineer the way the YMP talked to everything and make a cray-
emulating super.  If it had sparcs you could call it a SPRAY.

Or if it had PowerPC's you could call it a Crayola
