Celtic Soul - I don't know about now, but an old issue of Smithsonian magazine (or was it Invention and Technology?) credits an accountant at an Arkansas Chicken Factory with the first use of a "network" computer to send the accounts back to the home office. Seems he jury-rigged his "calculator" so he could spend more time with the chickens(?).

Lots of good stuff happens "out in the sticks w/ the hicks."
