But around the same time, Bill Gates and Paul Allen came up with an idea even stranger and more fantastical: selling computer operating systems. This was much weirder than the idea of Jobs and Wozniak. Yet now the company that Gates and Allen founded is selling operating systems like Gillette sells razor blades.
