Charles Oropallo

In the world of website development and maintenance, few professionals can claim as extensive and diverse a background as Charles Oropallo. With a career in computer technology that spans decades, Charles has been at the forefront of several significant milestones in the industry. Today, he leads his company, CharlesWorks, in providing reliable, affordable, and comprehensive web solutions for businesses and individuals alike. Charles’s journey into the world of computer technology began in November 1977, when he authored and implemented a Bulletin Board System (BBS) called Access-80. Running on a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model I, Level II microcomputer, Access-80 was among the first of its kind, offering personal messaging for local computer enthusiasts in East Greenbush, NY, and Schenectady, NY. Access-80 operated with a 300 baud modem and a home-brewed auto-answering device—a far cry from today’s high-speed internet connections. In 1982, Charles moved to Nashua, NH, bringing Access-80 with him. The BBS expanded its reach to Londonderry, NH, and remained online until 1987. Through Access-80, Charles demonstrated his hardware and software technical abilities, writing a host program in assembly language and a bulletin board system program in BASIC. His message handling program, aptly named “email,” was an early version to the now-ubiquitous communication tool. Charles’s passion for computer technology eventually led him to establish CharlesWorks in June 1998. Initially providing internet connectivity for personal and organizational websites at low speeds, CharlesWorks quickly evolved to meet the growing needs of its clients. Today, the company specializes in maintaining its own hosting infrastructure, including DNS servers, web servers, and email servers, ensuring the highest level of customer service and satisfaction. CharlesWorks has successfully transitioned into the commercial Internet market, providing website development solutions for businesses while still catering to individuals seeking personal sites. The company prides itself on offering affordable and reliable services, ensuring that clients receive the best possible service and web solutions without breaking the bank. To help clients get started, CharlesWorks offers domain registration for .biz, .com, .info, .name, .net, .org, and .us domain names with full privacy for only about $15.00 per year. Specialty domains are also available at varying price structures, allowing clients to find the perfect domain name for their needs.
