Seattle supercomputer maker Cray is selling a major part of its technology portfolio to Intel for $140 million, a move that will shift up to 74 Cray employees to Intel.
The sale involves Cray's interconnect hardware assets and intellectual property. In addition to receiving the cash, the company is forming a new partnership with Intel, giving it "opportunities to leverage important differentiating features of certain future Intel products," the company said in a release.

i am pretty sure this is in response to sea micro and amd. i mean that is what amd essentially bought...interconnect technology right? although i am pretty sure the Gemini interconnect from cray is faster.
