What is the best system? Linux or Windows?

Noted in the recent period significant progress and began to accommodate the emergence of Linux around the world, which contributed to the obvious question was asked is: What is the best system? Linux or Windows?



To try to make a comparison between these two systems:

1- Is a Windows system is closed and owned by Microsoft, while preparing for a Linux system free and open, if we noticed that the pirated software began to recede significantly in the Arab region, this means that each of us in the near future to pay huge sums for Windows, while the can get Linux for free or for a nominal fee.

2 - You can get the source code for Linux for free, which means that the developer can develop the Arab and evaluate the system to fit their needs, while this is not available for Windows.

3 - The Linux system is quite stable, and very rare to have to restart it, while the Windows problems are well known to everyone.

4 - does not require Linux Specifications great for your device to work well, any device with a processor Pentium or any processor compatible or later it will suffice you against the running Linux without significant problems, but Windows With each new version of it you find that the list of specifications have changed and you may have to buy a new device to be able to host the Mr. Windows heavy shade.

5 - previously had Windows beats Linux unchallenged in the ease of installation, but today, this matter has become of the past has been to facilitate the installation of most copies of Linux to match the process of installing Windows, and even to overcome, perhaps, at speed, and this is what Santapah through the lessons of the installation some popular versions of Linux.



6 - The process of installing programs in Linux what is still a little late for Windows in ease of installation and Slasth, where you find yourself compelled to write some commands to install a program in Linux, while only in Windows by clicking on it.

7 - superior to Windows in its support available via the Internet, and with this support is also available for Linux, but find it and find it might not be easy and accessible to everyone.

8 - superior to Windows in the vast amount of programs available to them, especially the specialized programs, and sponsored by large companies, most software design and editing, and many programs large and famous do not provide copies are compatible with Linux, which is a great privilege for the benefit of the Windows versus Linux, and if this is the way of improvement, especially that some of the giant companies such as IBM and Oracle started providing copies of its software compatible with Linux, and copies of Linux now comes with most programs that might be needed by the average user and the user desktop.

9 - The Windows in the past is superior to Linux in the façade graphics, but this has also become the past, they come back to Linux now with Busbandtin Rsometin adorable are the GNU Object Modeling Environment (GNOME) and K Desktop Environment (KDE) and the beauty of it that these interfaces slots offering you great control in Mzaarhama to suit the tastes of most users.


10 - gives you great control over the Linux operating system is not used it with Windows in the sense that Linux is one of the favorite systems of most advanced users who want more control iPods.

11 - Linux still suffers from some problems in identifying the various pieces of gear and if we can say that most of the pieces produced by the well-known companies, Linux can be easily identified.


We have got a vision acceptable to the advantages and disadvantages of Linux compared with Windows, and an update of the interest we will make a comparison between Linux and a copy Unix because of the similarity between them, and we will choose the Solaris Solaris, which is a copy Unix and is a product of a prestigious company is Sun.

Despite the similarities between Linux and Unix, it must be emphasized that Linux is Unix, and other than not to be confused between the two, although that Linux was designed to be similar to Unix, but I wrote encoded differently.









Let's take a look at the differences between the systems for Linux and Solaris:



1 - Linux is open and free Solaris, while closed and the company is owned by Sun.


2 - Linux is compatible with a huge range of gear, while the process of Solaris runs only on devices and hardware company Sun.


3 - most copies of Linux easier to install from the Solaris system.


4 - Linux began spreading among small and medium-sized view of the cost of simple, while Solaris is allocated to work on highly sophisticated equipment and expensive, so it is spread among large companies.


5 - Solaris is often used to run certain programs and high-performance dedicated to the performance of specific tasks for this is not suitable for the user profile, unlike Linux.


6 - more support is available for Solaris compared to Linux, and the process of development since the period is much longer than Linux, making it the system Otaida and superior to Linux for performance.


7 - Solaris superior ability to work with many hardware processors, on both Linux and Windows.


8 - The Solaris systems more stable and stable at all and without a rival among all known systems.



We have we got a picture of Linux compared with the most powerful Unix systems, and to complete the picture let us perform the comparison with another operating system in line with Linux in the fact that a system free of charge and the system is FreeBSD, which is a form of Unix and is a member of the Berkeley Standard Distribution (BSD) variants and has developed by the University of California, and the following are some differences between the two systems:


1 - Linux is more prevalent than FreeBSD because of some problems that accompanied the first version of it.


2 - Linux supports more hardware compared to FreeBSD.


3 - the core of a Linux system is owned by one person, while the core of the system, FreeBSD is owned by the development team at the University of California, and any changes in the pulp must get the approval of the team before being included in future versions of the system, and this contributes to the exit of versions more stable, but these versions are less and therefore the process of development are slower in comparison with Linux.


4 - of the most prominent differences between the two systems, the ability of Linux to attract Windows users because of the environment and the graphical interface that can be available for Linux users and that are similar to Windows with FreeBSD does not provide this feature.


5 - FreeBSD system is more appropriate for users who are accustomed to using Unix system.
