In their first office, hired a year ago in a business district of Vilnius, they have all arranged themselves: they have added extra partitions, shelves found in a store cheap furniture and objects for home, they have assembled and installed themselves. The connection of computers is too. Before renting the office, the brothers Dailide had worked for eight years, where they found refuge in the shed of the house of their parents, Prienai, then in the small apartment in Vilnius Aidas, between the pizza boxes , soda cans and coffee cups dirty.
In late 2007, the brothers launched Dailide market Pixelmator, a program for editing images and photos for the Macintosh. This software has reported their gains. "I do not even know when it happened, there are three, four or five years," confesses, smiling Saulius, the eldest, a boy with brown eyes silent.
"Yes, we've already won over a million, but we do not publish precise figures." In their office, you can not know the time of the day, the curtains are drawn all day, even when the sun rayon, nobody goes. The activity never stops. Dailide brothers are no exception. They developed the software enjoyed by millions of users around the world in the space of nine months, working day and night.
"Before putting on the market, we released a screenshot to verify that the program was much needed. It has been so successful that it has appeared in major magazines. We realized that we were on track, "said Saulius. The first attempt was a hit. Upon its sale, the program created by the two brothers was all the rage.
From day one, their turnover has reached U.S. $ 60,000, a sum unheard of for them. The success story of two brothers began nine years ago. Saulius and Aidas was 18 just 13. Their father brought back from Denmark an old Macintosh, which quickly became the world center for boys. The brothers had no Internet, they could not discuss computer games, so they had to be satisfied that contained the Mac offered by their father.
And inside, there was almost nothing, only the operating system, Mac OS, a Photoshop [photo editor] hacked and other programs, as strange as each other. Saulius and Aidas spent their time dissecting the computer, experiencing its possibilities and looking for ways to improve them. When the computer crashes, the two brothers were collapsed.
As there was nobody there to fix their father's computer in Denmark referred to the seller. It on again and after three months, and sent to Lithuania. This DIY Standing has borne fruit: the brothers started selling their own programs. "Our first salary was about 300 euros. It seemed unreal, a sum so large, Saulius fun, then we tried to win even more.
Not because the money we turned his head, but we needed to buy a new computer and better programs. "The fourth computer that we bought was new, remember the brothers, until then, we only had the bikes used, we shared. It lasted a long time, three or four years before we can afford to buy our own new Mac.
"Although they have already pocketed over a million thanks to their activity and can imagine living without worry the next day, Dailide roll in an old car, do not spend their time abroad and, instead of lazing on sunny beaches, the mountains instead choose from Sweden. There, they spend a week playing war with friends, hungry, dirty and wet.
"We like to play Airsoft [paintball game in 3D]", admit the two brothers with a smile.
