OS classification by developers

The operating system is the most important component of the computer system, since it helps users to communicate with the machine extremely easily. There are many different operating systems that are available for a modern user. These operating systems are available in different ranges and types. Classification of the OS can be carried out on different grounds, but this article will deal with the most common.

The operating system acts as an intermediary between application programs and computer hardware , as well as peripheral equipment and computer equipment.

Classification of the OS by manufacturers offers 3 main types.

The operating system Windows: certainly the most popular among PC users and laptops. The latest offer of developers is Windows 8. This is a revolutionary version, designed for desktop computers, as well as for laptops, phones and tablets. Windows 7 will be difficult to dislodge the market: it received better reviews than the operating system Vista. However, Vista and XP are still available and popular.

Macintosh operating system: Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard is the latest product in this category. Mac users are looking forward to the release of version 10.7 Lion. Previous versions of OS X are also quite popular these days.

Linux operating systems: In the past few years, these operating systems have become very popular. However, most users around the world use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - Lucid Lynx, which was released in April 2010 and is supported until April 2013. In addition to Ubuntu, other popular operating systems include OpenSUSE, Fedora, Debian, Red Hat Linux and CentOS Linux. Thus, the classification of Linux OS is very extensive, and the choice of the best version depends on the user's wishes.

Choosing the best operating system, pay attention that it as much as possible corresponded to all your needs . Operating systems for PC can be used any, however convenience should be in the first place.

You can purchase basic software developed for any operating system: for all OS there are office programs, programs for visiting the Internet, writing e-mails, editing photos, etc.

The final characteristic of operating systems can be the following: since Windows is still the dominant player in this field, most programs and games are designed for this platform. Therefore, if you only want to use something rare and unusual in your daily work, Windows will suit you better than any version of Mac or Linux. The only exception is working with multimedia: editing music and video. In this field, Mac is the king.

In simple terms, ordinary users prefer to stick to Windows 7 for as long as possible. Classification of the OS on the basis of convenience puts this distribution on the first place. If you use a tablet and want to stay up to date with all the new products - then you can install Windows 8. However, make sure that you know how to enter the touch commands and are well versed in a new, unusual menu.

For a simple office work, any version of Linux (with Office programs Open Office, Libre Office) is a good idea, because it is the most protected from viruses due to the open source code. However, you will not often get the latest features and updates, as there are not many improvements for these operating systems.
