AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13G

          This Amendment No. 1 to the initial statement on Schedule 13G filed
June 30, 1999 (the "Initial Statement") by Advantage Fund II Ltd., a British
Virgin Islands corporation ("Advantage"), Genesee Fund Limited - Portfolio B,
a British Virgin Islands corporation ("Genesee Fund"), Genesee International,
Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Genesee International"), and Donald R. Morken
("Mr. Morken", and collectively with Advantage, Genesee Fund and Genesee
International, the "Reporting Persons") relates to the Common Stock, $.01 par
value (the "Common Stock"), of Tera Computer Company, a Washington corporation
(the "Issuer").  Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have
the meanings given them in the Initial Statement.  This Amendment No. 1 is
being filed by the Reporting Persons to report that each of the Reporting
Persons has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
Common Stock.  This Amendment No. 1 amends the Initial Statement as follows:

Item 4.           Ownership:

                  (a)    Amount Beneficially Owned by Advantage, Genesee Fund,
                         Genesee International, and Mr. Morken:

                         Advantage:              	178,710
                         Genesee Fund:           	163,575
                         Genesee International:  	342,285
                         Mr. Morken:             	342,285

                  (b)    Percent of Class:

                         Advantage:                  	0.8%
                         Genesee Fund:               	0.7%
                         Genesee International:      	1.4%
                         Mr. Morken:                 	1.4%

The Issuer reported that 23,871,240 shares of Common Stock
were outstanding as of November 12, 1999 in its Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30,
1999.  This amount was used to determine the percentages of
outstanding shares of Common Stock reported in this
statement.

                  (c)    Number of Shares as to which the Person has:

                         (i)     sole power to vote or to direct
                                 the vote

                         Advantage:                	-0-
                         Genesee Fund:             	-0-
                         Genesee International:    	-0-
                         Mr. Morken:               	-0-

                         (ii)    shared power to vote or to
                                 direct the vote

                         Advantage:              	178,710
                         Genesee Fund:           	163,575
                         Genesee International:  	342,285

                         (iii)   sole power to dispose or to
                                 direct the disposition of

                         Advantage:                	-0-
                         Genesee Fund:             	-0-
                         Genesee International:    	-0-
                         Mr. Morken:               	-0-

                         (iv)    shared power to dispose or to
                                 direct the disposition of

                         Advantage:              	178,710
                         Genesee Fund:           	163,575
                         Genesee International:  	342,285
                         Mr. Morken:             	342,285

In addition to the shares of Common Stock reported above in
this Item 4, as of December 31, 1999 Advantage directly
owned warrants to purchase an aggregate of 863,446 shares of
Common Stock and Genesee Fund directly owned warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 669,351 shares of Common Stock
(collectively, the "Warrants").  However, the terms of the
Warrants provide that the holder may not exercise such
Warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock to the extent
such exercise would cause the holder's beneficial ownership
of Common Stock to exceed 4.9% of the then outstanding
shares of Common Stock.  The power to vote and the power to
dispose of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants is shared by Genesee International and Mr.
Morken.

Item 5.           Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:

If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as
of the date hereof each of the Reporting Persons ceased to
be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
class of securities, check the following  [X].
