Comparision Of OS BY:Jaswanth R Vignesh Kumar Prakhar Kumar
Outline MacOS/OS X vs Windows OS vs ChromeOS Objective: *To compare the pros and cons of diffrent OS *To understand their purposes *To give a final Verdict
Understanding what an OS is ? An operating system (OS), in its most general sense, is software that allows a user to run other applications on a computing device. While it is possible for a software application to interface directly with hardware, the vast majority of applications are written for an OS, which allows them to take advantage of common libraries and not worry about specific hardware details.
Mac OS/ OS X Designed By Apple
Written In:C++,Objective C,Swift Mac OS It is a powerful OS designed by Apple. At macOS's core is a POSIX compliant operating system built on top of the XNU kernel , with standard Unix facilities available from the command line interface . Apple has released this family of software as a free and open source operating system named Darwin . On top of Darwin, Apple layered a number of components, including the Aqua interface and the Finder , to complete the GUI -based operating system which is macOS.
1. Simple but powerful user interface 2. Fewer viruses and other security issues 3. Seamless integration between OS and hardware 4. Comes preloaded with productivity apps 5. Effective and unparalleled multitasking feature 6. Integration with other Apple products 7. Limited Devices,so faster updates 8.It is a powerhouse in Hardware Department 9.Better environment for videographers and animators 10.Appeals to many people 8 1 Advantages Of Mac OS
Disadvantages of Mac OS 1. Mac computers are considerably expensive 2. Inflexible when it comes to hardware upgrades 3. Lack of game titles and advanced gaming experience 4. App ecosystem is still lacklustre 5.Limited to certain devices

Windows OS Designed by Microsoft
Written in Assembly Language,C++ Microsoft Windows Windows OS , computer operating system (OS) developed by Microsoft Corporation to run personal computers (PCs). Featuring the first graphical user interface (GUI) for IBM -compatible PCs, the Windows OS soon dominated the PC market. Approximately 90 percent of PCs run some version of Windows.
The first version of Windows, released in 1985, was simply a GUI offered as an extension of Microsoft’s existing disk operating system, or MS-DOS . Based in part on licensed concepts that Apple Inc. had used for its Macintosh System Software, Windows for the first time allowed DOS users to visually navigate a virtual desktop, opening graphical “windows” displaying the contents of electronic folders and files with the click of a mouse button, rather than typing commands and directory paths at a text prompt.
Advantages Of Microsoft Windows 1)It has a large User base 2)It has much more variety 3)Supports a large variety of Software and games 4)It has a great visual user interface 5)Ease of access 6)Hardware choices available
Disadvantages of Microsoft 1.High resource requirements 2.Closed Source 3.Poor security 4.Virus susceptibility 5. Outrageous license agreements 6.Poor technical support 7.Poor stability 8.Poor support for older hardware 9.Poor remote access 10.Backwards incompatible file formats
Different Versions Windows 1(1.1,1.2,1.3.1,4.1.5) Windows 2(2.11) Windows 3(3.1) Windows NT Windows 95 Windows 98 Windows 2000,ME Windows XP Windows Vista Windows 7 Windows 8(8.1) Windows 10
