Wolfgang Stief<p>Es gibt die Erzählung, dass Steve Jobs mal Seymour Cray erzählte, dass Apple eine Cray besäße und benutzen würde, um Apple-Computer zu entwickeln. Der für seinen trockenen Humor bekannte Cray soll darauf entgegnet haben, dass er seine Crays auf einem Apple entwickelt. Zumindest die erste Hälfte der Geschichte ist verbrieft. Apple hat 1986 eine Cray X-MP/48 gekauft und für das Engineering benutzt: <a href="https://archive.org/details/bitsavers_appleatgaqeepstheDoldrumsAwayCrayChannelsv09n11987_1290329/mode/2up" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">archive.org/details/bitsavers_</span><span class="invisible">appleatgaqeepstheDoldrumsAwayCrayChannelsv09n11987_1290329/mode/2up</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vintagecomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vintagecomputing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cray</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apple</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/techhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>techhistory</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/technikgeschichte" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technikgeschichte</span></a></p>
