CDC Cyber

The Cyber range of mainframe computers were Control Data Corporation's primary products during the 1970's and 1980's. The Cyber line included three very different models of computer, the 170 series based on the architecture of the CDC 6600 and CDC 7600, the 180 series developed by a team in Canada, and the 200 series based on the CDC STAR-100. Primarily aimed at large office applications instead of the traditional supercomputer tasks, some of the Cyber machines nevertheless included basic vector instructions for added performance in "traditional" CDC roles.
