Which Operating system is very popular in all over the world?

Windows is #1\nMac OS and Linux are also powerful players with a small but dedicated user base.\n\nWindows with Windows 2000, XP and 98 dominating. Followed by Mac OS X and Classic, and various Linux Distrbutions.  There is always some argument about Linux versus Mac market share numbers. Apple has sold a decent number of machines that all run Mac OS, and while Linux is an open source free OS that has lots of uses, it is still mostly limited to servers, techno geeks and the like. Some stats show then both around 3% to 5% worldwide OS use. With MS about 88% to 92%.  Some other niche players include Sun's Solaris, UNIX variants, which have been specialized for certain applications.

loaded question.\n\nThe crazy thing is that you can run all three on the same hardware!\n\nMac and Linux are both more secure than windows.\nWindows has more avaiable applications than mac and linux.\nLinux is harder to use (for more than webbrowsing and              document creation) then mac and windows.\nMac is probably more stable because they have a very small pool of supported drivers than linux and windows (could also be a con, with less drivers).\nMac and Linux are used than less people, so less likely to have viruses.\nEveryone uses Windows and have to use microsoft stuff to work with the rest of the world.

Trick question - C _is_ the most popular programming language.\nWell to be honest, Java and VB are probably more popular in general (i.e. including home user hobbyists), but in the industry you'll find that C/C++ are more widely used.\n\nRawlyn.

what operating system......ask and i will answer....

there are a tonne of them, but because they're not as big as the ones you mentioned they probably wouldn't be of use as a main operating system because the support/compatibility isn't there:\nhttp://www.freebyte.com/operatingsystems/\n\ntake your pick from just about 100 of them on that page alone!

I don't want to ramble on.... lets just say that Ubuntu is the coolest thing since sliced cheese.\n\nI run a design/computer firm so I am sorta stuck with windows until Codeweavers gets Crossover Office running photoshop cs2 on linux.(You will learn about running windows applications on linux shortly)\n\nHowever, NO MORE SUCKING ON THE TEET THAT IS MICROSOFT for us. I use ubuntu for everything else. \n\nIt took me approximately 10 hours to sort out what I was doing to port my entire office over(except for color management and printing stuff).  Two Ubuntu builds later, I am making insane money porting peoples offices from windows to linux.\n\nYou will have absolutely no problems intalling ubuntu or using it and you will never turn back...\n\nNo more hard locks, no more blue screens, no more poop...\n\nEdit: As a matter of fact we will provide instruction if you get stuck and will help you for free!\n\n\nhope that helps, freedom is just around the corner!

As a graphic designer for Highlights for Children I can tell you that Mac OS 10 is far superior to Windows XP for all of my creative and entertainment endeavors.  The OS is very stylish and smooth and aids a great deal in organizing work and personal files. It's fast, easy to use, extremely customizable, smart and mostly headache free unlike XP.  It’s also great for storing and utilizing media files. Plus Microsoft makes all of their popular packages like office, etc. available for OS 10 and they look, feel and operate so much better than in XP.  And for design software such as Adobe CS2 and Quark, you will never beat Mac.  Don't forget that behind the OS is a very powerful CPU especially with the new Intel Dual Core Processors.

I will choose Apple Macintosh in accordance to it's OS - Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, due to it's based on highly reliable and stable foundation - UNIX. I have been used my new iBook for more then a year and it's really has no breakdowns or failures. Besides UNIX, the seamlessly built-in desktop search engine - Spotlight makes you finds your information just in seconds. The Mac OS or Macintosh today is truely compartible with other Windows computers, networks, disks or softwares.\n\n"It's the best operating system out here" saids Walt Mossberg, author of Personal Technology column in Wall Street Journal.

If you're looking for your version...click on Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System. It should say there. Or try Start -> Control Panel -> System.\n\nIf you want to see a lift of Operating Systems, go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system .

Thats a pretty broad question!  What part of the world of computers?  PC's  faster, cheaper, but not better.\nFor servers, the trend is towards virtualization, and IBM\nis currently the leader in my opinion.

I definitely prefer Mac OS X over Windows. It is more stable, has virtually no viruses or spyware and more pleasant to use.
