Stop.

In detail:

You've got a long way to go before that comes close to being a reasonable goal. The Linux guys have been at it for years and, for workstations, they're nowhere near MS or Apple (and Apple isn't anywhere near MS for workstation performance). It wasn't even a viable workstation platform until recently (non-preemptable scheduling = utter crap for desktops/workstations).

I'd worry about fixing things like a sticky '1' key causing multiple exclamation points as well as successfully mastering proper use of the word "you".

Once you get to university, you'll likely either change your goals or realize their depth.
