Cray often had interesting designs that probably ended up influencing a lot of sci-fi. CDC (control data corporation) had interesting designs as well, prior to that, and Cray worked there before founding his own company.
One other supercomputer line with iconic looks is Connection Machines which are IMO some of the coolest looking computers ever made.
