Yes, Argonne National Lab (ANL) announced in April it will purchase
a large Cray system as part of the CORAL intitative at a price of
$200 million. Expected performance is 180 PFLOPs. <br>

Interesting, ANL has long been an IBM shop (Intrepid, Mira) and ORNL
has been a Cray shop (Jaguar, Titan) but that's switching with the
CORAL purchases. I guess they want to keep their admins and
developers on their toes. <br>
