CM2s looked like freak machines from the the point of view
of this particular Transputer fan-boy. Interesting, but I
didn't feel they really made a breakthrough in scalability.
The history of Thinking Machines and the motivations behind
those machines make for interesting reading.

Unsurprisingly BlueGene/L gives this particular Transputer
fan-boy the warm fuzzies. :)

Cheers,
Rupert
