shit dodge softw atomic turning 18 programByCollegeCourseProfessorDateAbstractThere has been a battle of domination among tech giants for quite a long superstar company is unceasingly trying to outsmart the otherwise. Positively speaking we can say that this has guide to many innovations that have come in ready to hand(predicate) to come across the customers navigations loose (morris-2014).Looking at it from the customers eye, selection of good softwargon has been a daunt task as most of them be brilliant if not classic. cream of an operating is quite easy technologarithmy gurus but the situation is diametrical for customers that are gaunt to a product just because of peer fiber or it popularity. Most of them end up being disap poseed with their acquired placements later they underperform or demand other requirements to function. It is this battle that has led to speciality of the products in the technology industry, a keen analysis will acquaint that some oper ating systems perform brilliantly in ace knit but fail in another one and only(a) is good in programming but moderate in its internet speed and wrong versa.This research should be an eye opener for the operating system customers sooner they pack bucks to go shopping for an OS they should know the precise features that they take their OS to have and hence need to do detailed barb to avoid confusion and later frustrations. Well, the most common operating system is windows banking on popularity, but Linux is also catching up. Mac is out of suspicion in this research as it only operates on Apple devices and if one owns the device then he has no option but cleave to Mac operating system. On that point, I will be focal point on windows and Linux software program in a bid to prove my point clear.The comparisons between these two should clearly show that one is superior to the other I back the Linux system. To add a mint of credibility I will be sourcing for teaching from trustwo rthy online sites and critical articles that speak in favor of Linux. This will do a demeanor with bias and give the commentator relevant insights. In the result section I will be showing that, truly there are bene go overs of Linux over windows software. In the tidings part I will highlight the requirements to serve Linux, its file system location, instructions to suck up it and give examples of companies that use Linux to prove my point. IntroductionLinux was developed in 1991 by Linus Torvalds.It is a free open character open source operating system that allows exploiters customize their own source code extra to main source code of Linux. It can be used on any device, smartphone, gaming consoles, e-books and desktops, however, it is mainly used as a horde because of its openness and easy functionality. A common distribution of linux is the kernel this is the telephone exchange operating system component and link between a software application and its data. Other distrib utions are downloading tools, system utilities, programs. It also comes in handy when injecting or un launching updates.The ability of Linux to allow easy data handling and have resizable folders, buttons, windows and icons has make a preferred OS over its competitors as web developers use it to train themselves. Its robustness, scalability and flexibility have also made it a base OS for giant companies (gagne-2014). Some of it outstanding benefits are open source nature, this allows it drug users to see the codes and make modifications. Community sup mien system, this enables the user to reach share his problems to the Linux community and solutions be offered without waiting for experts. Reliability, it runs smoothly with no delays and reboot commands. Free to use, the customers can access it freely and even run it without subscriptions.Privacy does not pop out additional tools or make commands for information collection. Best for programming, allows a variety of programming app lications like c/c++, python, perl and java to run on the OS.Research MethodsI used internet articles and scholarly reviews to build on my case. I mainly focused on the ones that explained the advantages that Linux has and disadvantages of windows. I also read ones that said the advantages of windows over linux. I aggregated the results of one party one party over the other and also summed the disadvantages of one case over the latter. This is the method I used so as to not look biased. I sourced the installation instructions from Linux and Windows official sites so that to give detailed travel and prove which one was elemental to install and run and which had additional requirements for the process to begin.Results I discovered that windows has 13 steps to installation of the main and will require an antivirus before you begin to run the operating system. Windows also has a variety of products that are only fit to certain types of devices depending on the year it was manufactured and the storage space on the device. Linux on the other hand has 11 steps that can be downed to 6 and does not need an antivirus installation before it starts running. This feature reduces cost. This proves that Linux is way cheaper and way easy to control than windows. DiscussionThe steps after installation are not essential if you only need the Linux OS to be doing simple tasks like typing and doing calculation (dubey-2016).There also minimal requirements essential to run Linux on your device, they are2GHz dual core processor2GiB system memory25 GB hard drive space, that can hold a USB stick, memory broadsheet on external driveVGA that has 1024 by 768 screen resolutionDVD/ CD or USB port for installer mediaInternet access ( optional)The requirements to install it on your desired servers are also slight compared to windowsProcessor should be 300MHz by 86 or above take should be 256MiB or above Disk space of 1.5GB or aboveMonitor billet and graphic card of 640 by 480 CD driveS ystem files or log files are located in the directory of the software there are assorted log files for different applications on the system.The most common files are history files that take on installation and removal information. In the directory you can view it at cagey then history.logOther file destinations in the directory areInstaller, log files created during installationKern.log, kernel information like errors and warningsAlternatives.log, set of history on alternatives set by different packagesXorg.org, details on graphic driver that includes it warnings and failuresApport.log, saves information about number of crashes the OS has experiencedInstructions to install your Linux software are simpleDownload the OS from Ubuntu site, this ensures it is authenticBurn the OS on a CD, memory card or forte diskPartition the computers hard driveInsert your installer to the specific portRestart your device and wait for Linux installation window to appearSelect the spoken communicat ion on the BIOS and click installCheck both boxes for preparing to install Ubuntu and continueCheck erase disk and install Ubuntu, click install nowFollow the prompts to set location and time and enter your user informationSelect log in information and restart the computerSelect Ubuntu and press enterConclusion War lines were drawn on the technology industry floor when there was emergence of software and the situation tensed further when modifications were being done on the systems. each(prenominal) fronts have diehards and sycophants to vehemently prove their sides stronger but we must all gybe that there are specific tasks that on OS performs bring out than the other it is on this truce that I have prove that Linux has a better understanding of its customer base and it is by far the best as it offers simpler and more efficient tools over its arch rival. It is sad that a companys control is always measured by its net sales and popularity but the judge ignore its suitability and fail to account for the grumbles from the customers.Truth be said, it is this ratings that breaking wind to misleading of more customers. Linux efficiency and supremacy can be proved by giant companies that run on it facebook, Google, Amazon, McDonalds, twitter, IBM, DELL, NASA and even the American submarines (das-2014). This business proves the point that Linux has a high level of privacy, is fast, can be circumscribed to feed specific needs, cannot easily crash, is inexpensive and holds a large touchstone of data. Thumb rule of any manufacturing company should be allow customers ride the value for their money but meeting their specific needs.What is the need of acquiring of acquiring an operating system that is not long lasting or one that will need regular updates for it to function? That is how I fold that Linux is by far much better than Windows operating system.ReferencesLA Morris- 2014Multi-OS (operating system) boot via wandering(a) deviceG Gagne- 2014Operating syst em conceptsSK Dubey- 2016Implementation of operating system selection using AHP- entropy modelD Das- 2014Performance mensuration and management model of data generation and writing time.
