About Cray Inc. These include the technical
challenges of developing high performance computing systems, government
support and timing of supercomputer system purchases, the successful
porting of application programs to Cray computer systems, the successful
passing of acceptance tests, reliance on third-party suppliers, fluctuating
quarterly operating results, lower margins and earnings due to significant
pricing pressure, Cray's ability to keep up with rapid technological
change, Cray's ability to compete against larger, more established
companies and innovative competitors, and general economic and market

PRESS RELEASE Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology Selects Cray XT3 Computer System to Accelerate Scientific Research

(NASDAQ: CRAY) today announced that the Japan Advanced Institute of Science and
Technology (JAIST) has selected the new Cray XT3 massively parallel
processing (MPP) system as the main system for its high-performance
computing facility."

"The JAIST faculty and the Center for Information Science have exceptional
expertise in large-scale parallel computing and a broad portfolio of highly
parallel applications.

As the global leader in HPC, Cray provides innovative supercomputing
systems that enable scientists and engineers in government, industry and
academia to meet both existing and future computational challenges. For a discussion of these and other risks, see "Factors That
Could Affect Future Results " in Cray's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
with the SEC on April 1, 2005.

The EC Electronic Invoicing Directive affects all businesses with
cross-border operations in Europe. The directive is intended to
harmonize the form and content of electronic invoices throughout the
European Union, providing consistency for businesses trading in
different member states.
Unfortunately, many countries have adopted differing country-specific
rules and interpretations. The companies
include Arrow Electronics (Europe), Canon Europe, Freescale Halbleiter
Deutschland, Fujitsu Siemens Computers, GE Commercial Distribution
Finance, Hewlett-Packard, and Texas Instruments. Remove the extra space if one exists .)

About CompTIA

CompTIA is a global trade association representing the business
interests of the information technology industry. The Science Place is a founding member of the
