Thinking Machines Corporation was a supercomputer manufacturer founded in Waltham, Massachusetts in 1982 by W. Daniel "Danny" Hillis and Sheryl Handler to turn Hillis's doctoral work at MIT on massively parallel computing architectures into a commercial product called the Connection Machine. The company moved in 1984 from Waltham to Kendall Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts, close to the MIT AI Lab and Thinking Machines' competitor Kendall Square Research.

  • Thinking Machines Corporation was a supercomputer manufacturer founded in Waltham, Massachusetts in 1982 by W. Daniel "Danny" Hillis and Sheryl Handler to turn Hillis's doctoral work at MIT on massively parallel computing architectures into a commercial product called the Connection Machine. The company moved in 1984 from Waltham to Kendall Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts, close to the MIT AI Lab and Thinking Machines' competitor Kendall Square Research. Besides Kendall Square Research, Thinking Machines' competitors included MasPar, which made a computer similar to the CM-2, and Meiko, whose CS-2 was similar to the CM-5. The company filed for bankruptcy in 1994, with its hardware and parallel computing software divisions eventually acquired by Sun Microsystems. "We're building a machine that will be proud of us. " – Thinking Machines' motto
  • La Thinking Machines Corporation è stata una società produttrice di supercomputer fondata a Waltham nel Massachusetts nel 1982 da W. Daniel Hillis e Sheryl Handler per sfruttare le ricerche sul parallelismo massivo di Hillis durante il suo dottorato al MIT. Il prodotto commerciale ottenuto venne chiamato Connection Machine. La compagnia venne trasferita nel 1984 a Kendal Square a Cambridge nel Massachusetts, vicino al MIT Al Lab e la concorrente della Thinking Machine il Kendall Square Research. Altri competitori della società erano la MasPar che produsse delle macchine simili alla CM-2, e la Meiko, che in seguito produsse macchine simili al CM-5.
  • シンキングマシンズ（Thinking Machines Corporation）は、1982年に W.D. Hillis と Sheryl Handler が設立したスーパーコンピュータ製造企業である。 Hillis がマサチューセッツ工科大学で研究していた並列コンピューティングアーキテクチャであるコネクションマシンを商用化するのが企業の目的であった。1984年には、MIT人工知能研究所に近いマサチューセッツ州ケンブリッジのケンドール・スクエアに移転している。そこはまた競合しているケンドール・スクエア・リサーチ社とも近かった。他の競合企業としては、MasPar（CM-2に良く似たマシンを販売）やMeiko（後にCM-5に良く似たマシンを販売）がある。
