WHAT IS AN OPERATING SYSTEM?
• An operating system is software that manages computer
hardware and software resources and provides common
services for computer programs.
• The operating system is an essential component of the system
software in a computer system. Application programs usually
require an operating system to function.
•
In simple language it can be said that An OS is a piece of
software that is needed to run the programs on a computer or a
mobile device. The programs that run on an operating system
talk to the hardware.
THERE ARE VARIOUS OPERATING SYSTEMS(OS) IN
TODAY’S WORLD.
Mac OS by
Apple
Windows by
Microsoft Corp.
Linux by
Community
MAC OS
• Mac OS is a series of graphical user interface-based operating systems
developed by Apple Inc. for their Macintosh line of computer systems.
• Mac OS was designed only to run on Apple Computers.
• In 1984, Apple introduced the Macintosh PC with the Macintosh Operating
System.
• Apple names its OS as “Mac OS”, beginning in 1997 which was previously
known as “System”.
FEATURES OF MAC OS
•
Security
•
Reliability
•
Ease of use
•
Integration with Apple & Other products
SECURITY
• Mac OS is a two-layered system: the ”attractive GUI” sits atop a Unix core,
and Unix is best-known for its security features. It's simply impossible to install
a destructive Trojan or virus unless the user explicitly allows it root access via
typing in the admin password. Mac OS's built-in firewall is set up to work
unobtrusively out of the box as well as being highly configurable.
• Mac OS users should be vigilant about strange files and never allow an
application they aren't certain of admin access, but they don't need special
anti-virus software
RELIABILITY
• Because OS X (means MAC OS) was designed from scratch from the ground
up, Mac OS is incredibly stable. Apple controls production from start to finish,
so every part of a Mac is designed and tested to work together.
EASE OF USE
•
Apple's known for hiring the best industrial and interface designers around, and it
shows in the intuitive nature of the GUI. I don't mean to sound like I'm verging into
fangirl territory here; it's just true. Like the OS's reliability, the OS's functionality is
designed to just work.
•
The attractiveness of the interface can't be discounted. Some scoff that looks aren't
everything, but when you're spending 8 or more hours a day staring at a screen, it's
a relief to spend that time staring at a well-designed screen.
•
Advanced users have easy command-line access with the Terminal app.
INTEGRATION WITH APPLE AND OTHER
PRODUCTS
• Mac OS will automatically recognize and work with any other Apple product,
such as iPhone, Cinema Display, Airport, and iPad. On top of this, additional
drivers are rarely needed for non-Apple products, and I can't think of the last
time I plugged a non-Apple device into my Mac that Mac OS didn't
recognize.
WINDOWS OS
• Microsoft Windows operating system was developed by Microsoft to overcome the limitation
of its own MS-DOS operating system.
• First successful version were Windows 3.0, released in 1990.
• Subsequently released version were “Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000,
Windows XP, Windows XP Professional , Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows
8.1 and nowadays Microsoft launches it’s latest OS Windows 10.”
FEATURES OF WINDOWS OS
• Easy to use
• Performance monitor
• Files management
• Plug & Play
• Based on MS-Dos
• Windows
EASY TO USE
• Microsoft windows is easy to use as compared to other operating systems in
the modern era therefore Windows is most popular OS in the world.
PERFORMANCE MONITOR
• Windows gives you an advantage of checking the performance of your PC .
• Any one can check the performance of it’s windows pc by pressing
“alt+ctlr+del” keys at the same time.
FILES MANAGEMENT
• Windows manage your files automatically into a spefic location on the basis
of the type of the file. E.g., images were automatically sent in “ Pictures
folder”.
PLUG AND PLAY
• Windows gives plug and play option to it’s user. There is no need to install the
driver of any external pheriphal device like “web camera’s, joysticks data
traveler devices etc.
BASED ON MS-DOS
• Windows is a MS-DOS based operating system.
WINDOWS
• Microsoft Windows is a windows operating system: “means that every task we
want to do done in it’s own window”.
• Every program / task has is it’s own window in which that task occurs.
LINUX OS
• Linux was originally built by Linus Torvalds at the University of Helsinki in
1991.
• Linux is a Unix-like, Kernel-based, fully memory-protected, multitasking
operating system .
FEATURES OF LINUX OS
• Open Source Operating System.
• Free Software
• It runs on a wide range of hardware from PCs to Macs.
OPEN SOURCE OPERATING SYSTEM
• Linux is a open source operating system. Any programmer can modify it due
to it’s needs.
FREE SOFTWARE
• Linux is a free software any one can download it from web and install it on it’s
pc
IT RUNS ON A WIDE RANGE OF HARDWARE FROM PCS
TO MACS.
• Iany pc user can install linux to it’s system there is no specific requirements for
installing it.
COMPARISON
SECURITY
MAC OS
WINDOWS OS
LINUX OS
THERE IS NO VIRUS IN
MAC OS BECAUSE YOU
CAN INSTALL MAC
ONLY ON APPLE
DEVICES
THERE ARE AMNY TYPES
OF VIRUSES IN WINDOWS
OS BECAUSE OF A LARGE
AMOUNT OF MARKET
SHARE
THERE ARE LESSER AMOUNT
OF VIRUSES IN LINUX AS
COMPARED TO WINDOWS
BECAUSE LINUX IS AN OPEN
SOURCE OS
COMPARISON
PRICE
MAC OS
WINDOWS OS
APPLE DEVICES ARE TOO WINDOWS IS LESS
MUCH EXPENSIVE
EXPENSIVE THAN MAC
LINUX OS
LINUX SOFTWARE IS
TOTALLY FREE
COMPARISON
COMPATIBILTY
MAC OS
WINDOWS OS
LINUX OS
MANY OF SOFTWARE’S
ARE NOT COMPATIBLE
WITH MAC OS SO YOU
FEEL LIMITED ON MAC OS
ANYONE CAN INSTALL
ANY TYPE OF GAME INTO
WINDOWS PC
WINDOWS PC IS
COMPATIBLE OF ALL TYPE
OF SOFTWARES AND
GAMES
LINUX IS A OPEN SOURCE
SOFTWARE SSO YOU
CAN PROGRAM THE
SOFTWARES THAT YOU
WANT
COMPARISON
RELIABLE
MAC OS
WINDOWS OS
MAC IS TOO MUCH
WINDOWS IS
RELIABLE AND
RELIABLE BUT DUE TO
SMOOTH BECAUSE IT VIRUSES IT STRUCKS
HAS NO VIRUSES
LINUX OS
BECAUSE LINUX IS
NOT A COMPLETE OS
YOU CAN MODIFY IT
FOR THAT TYOE OF
USAGE THAT YOU
WANT
COMPARISON
TASK MANAGER/ PERFORMANCE MONITOR
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, no operating system is really
better, the choice is up to you. If you're a
gamer, then you have no choice, go for
Windows. Programmers might prefer Linux
and video/graphics producers will probably
tend towards Mac. The best thing to do is
probably to try each OS and see which is
best for you!
