Atlassian (known for JIRA & CONFLUENCE) has bought Trello this week for $452 
million. Trello was founded by Joel Spolsky who was born in.. Albuquerque ! One 
of my Polish colleagues joked that his name Spolsky may come from a Polish 
grandparent who emigrated to the US, couldn't spell his name and just told he 
is from Poland ( "Z Polski" means "from Poland" in Polish ). However from 
Albuquerque in NM to being a millionaire in NY is not bad, isn't 
it?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Spolsky
Microsoft was founded in Albuquerque as well. There must be something about 
Albuquerque that makes it special :-)
