In 1968 the University of Utah was a hotbed for pioneering technologies.

Ivan Sutherland, Alan Kay and Jim Case worked there. It was the 4th node of Arpanet, the first backbone of the Internet, and a n important connector between the East and West coasts of mainframe computing.

Computer graphics were pioneered there, and the tech that became Adobe and Atari was born there, as were silicon graphics and Pixar technology.
