We’re gearing up for our Tech Talk this coming Monday, November 3rd that discusses how network engineering is evolving – but what about its origins?

In 1973, Ethernet was born in a Xerox PARC lab thanks to engineer Bob Metcalfe. He sketched the original concept on a napkin, envisioning a way for computers to communicate over a shared cable. That napkin drawing laid the foundation for modern LANs and eventually the internet as we know it.

From napkin to network - legendary, right?
