"UofS's Technology Through the Decades" (Murray Building - fall 2010) began with a typewriter belonging to Walter Murray (the UofS's first president). As we progressed through the decades, we showed off pictures of the UofS's first computer obtained in the 1950's (an LGP-30), moved onto early computer labs and unix terminals, shifted to the creation and evolution of the UofS's vast network, and paid tribute to the first personal computers as well as early wireless devices.
