U.S. BUYS SUPERCOMPUTER FROM JAPAN The National Science Foundation has chosen a NEC supercomputer for its Colorado weather research center, the first time the U.S. government has bought such a machine from a Japanese company. U.S. supercomputer company Cray Research had lobbied hard against the purchase, saying that NEC was unfairly offering the machine below cost. (Tampa Tribune 19 May 96 A8)
