Novell

Novell Data Systems begins in 1979 as a team of four Brigham Young University students. Raymond Noorda engages this team in 1983 to develop a file sharing system for the newly introduced IBM-compatible PC. The file sharing operating system is later renamed Novell Netware. By 1990, Novell's Netware has a virtual monopoly on the local area network market and a large base of customers.
