    National Education Supercomputer at Lawrence Livermore Labs provides access to the Cray High School Supercomputer. The Web site also provides a wide variety of "simple to use" applications that can run on the Macintosh at a remote site (the high school teacher's classroom, say). These routines interface with the Cray over the network to solve problems in climate modeling, molecular dynamics and more.
