In this report we give an overview of parallel and vector computers which are currently available or will become available within a short time frame from vendors; no attempt is made to list all machines that are still in the research phase. The machines are described according to their architectural class. Shared and distributed-memory SIMD an MIMD machines are discerned. The information about each machine is kept as compact as possible. Moreover, no attempt is made to quote price information as this is often even more elusive than the performance of a system.

Please not that this is not the original report. The original report has been translated into XML. The XML version is combined with information from other supercomputing information sources that are also available in XML. This way, the report has been augemented with:

• For each system, all machines in the current TOP500 list of supercomputers is listed.
• A summary table has been added. The average age of system architectures is calculated
• A description from the company, taken from the EnterTheGrid catalogue has been added.
