A new operating system
After several trials, he decided to write the whole operating system from scratch, trying to find a more efficient way to make the personal computer connect to the network.
By the beginning of his junior year, Aldo diSorbo could already move and save new files with the operating system that he built.
At the same time, another company monopolized the pc market with an operating system called 'Windows', but they didn't offer the users any possibility to access or alter the code.
This made Aldo very furious, because he thought of Computer Science as a field in which people should cooperate, not compete. "And money was just out of the question," as Aldo added years later.
