Each one of us love some OS or the other. There are so many Operating systems out there like Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Unix, Free BSD, Solaris,..etc. Each operating system is the best at what it is intended to do. Windows is the king of commercial software and if you need to run commercial software (ie Games, MS Office, Tax programs, etc) then you should run Windows. Mac OS X is good for multimedia design and editing and it is no surprise that most movie, music, and fashion shops tend to have Macs. Linux is a great developing machine, but each distro (distribution) of Linux has a niche market it also caters to. Read, Top 5 Advantages Of Using Linux Os 🙂
Linux is also the best platform to run FLOSS (Free Libre Open Source Software) on as most FLOSS projects were originally developed on Linux first. Solaris is the best server if up time is vital (these machines don’t quit even with a kernel panic (the Unix version of a BSOD)).

One of my hobbies is to collect different operating systems and softwares and finding out what’s new in that. Currently I run Windows 7, Windows Xp, 2 different flavors of Linux(One installed along with Windows and another mounted in Virtual Box), and Mac OS X. You also try LiveCDs, it allows you to use the operating system right from the CD (no need to install anything). This will tell you exactly how the OS will run on your computer.
In my opinion, i think the best OS because it’s very user friendly and it has tons of support compared to MAC. Mac is a great OS but i guess it’s only intended for people who are tech savvy.
The best OS for me is Windows 7. Thou it has many updates, i still like it because it has all the features that i want.
Best Operating system is Windows XP only.. Before Windows 98 Is the best , because easily can troubleshoot.
My favorite OS are Linux and Mac OS X 🙂
Well I as we can see based on the pictures that windows are way behind with mac! I hope they realized that and they will release their only secret weapon the windows 8 sooner or else it’s game over.
Jones I would like to add one more point here. Windows survives because its user-friendly and supports all games. Its a OS for Game lovers. In terms of Security and developers concern Linux & Unix are best 🙂
The best Operating System for me is Linux because it is more secure from such harmful viruses and it is more reliable to use.
