BellLabs

AT & T / Bell Labs (now lucent) "helped weave the technological fabric of modern society". These guys made UNIX in 1969, along with "stereo recording, sound motion pictures, the first long-distance TV transmission, the first fax machine, the touch-tone phone, several generations of modems, communications satellites, lasers, solar cells, cellular telephony and lightwave communication systems".

They are now part of the naming confusion surrounding AT&T/Lucent/Agere/Avaya.

From what I can tell, originally Agere was a division of Lucent, which was a division of AT&T. In 1991, AT&T assimilated a company called NCR (Which was where the 'father of Wifi')
