The Chennai Edition of "The Hindu" has reported that Thunder is ranked 
#2 among the top 500 Supercomputers. www.top500.org/list/2004/06

The new number 2 is the `Thunder' made by a relatively unknown 
assembler, California Digital Corporation and supplied to the Lawrence 
Livermore Laboratories. Its top speed is about half that of the NEC 
machine at 19.94 teraflops.

 It is fair that the facts are made more well known !

#257 is from IMSc, Chennai.
