> I know governments have numerous Supercomputers that blow past $200MM in build price, but what universities do?

Even when individual universities don't-- governments have supercomputing centers that universities are a primary user of and often charge back value of computing time to the university or it is a separate item that is competitively granted.

Here we're talking about Jupiter, which is a ~$300M supercomputer where research universities will be a primary user.
