  I review the Marseille GRAPE systems and the N-body simulations done with
them. I first describe briefly the available hardware and software, their
possibilities and their limitations. I then describe work done on interacting
galaxies and groups of galaxies. This includes simulations of the formation of
ring galaxies, simulations of bar destruction by massive compact satellites, of
merging in compact groups and of the formation of brightest members in clusters
of galaxies.
