Comparing two kinds of masterminds: Paul Allen and Bill Gates

Software industry started its foremost revolutionary moment when two very young guys at Lakeside School in Seattle started testing with computers and writing codes to solve common problems. They spent hours programming software and learning a lot about how processors and computers work. Back in 1975, Paul Allen –with its brilliant skills in computers and programming- began marketing the BASIC –beginner’s all-purposed symbolic instruction code- and founded Microsoft in Albuquerque Nuevo Mexico and started the revolution we have nowadays.

At the present time, we have a Paul Allen diagnosed with cancer –officially announced on November 17th- even thought his career has been affected since 1983 and it shocked Bill Gates because the responsibility of being the unique Microsoft’s face was on him. I firmly believe that the entire operating system revolution we have today has a very strong influence of Bill Gates and Paul Allen. They set a new age in the information technology sphere we live today.
