Microsoft presented a working situation named Windows on November 20, 1985 as a graphical working framework shell for MS-DOS in light of the developing enthusiasm for graphical UIs (GUI). Microsoft Windows came to command the world's PC showcase with more than 90% piece of the overall industry, surpassing Mac OS, which had been presented in 1984. (Bhardwaj, Arora & Malik, 2014, p.778).
Windows also has disadvantages but not affect its performance and credibility. Drawbacks of Windows. Microsoft Windows is not open source and the dominant part of Windows projects are not open source. In spite of the fact that Microsoft Windows has made extraordinary changes in dependability in the course of the last couple of variants of Windows, despite everything it can't coordinate the unwavering quality of Macintosh OS (Bhardwaj, Arora & Malik, 2014, p.782). Windows always updated and try to meet user requirements …show more content…
to make a better operating system that will triumph over other operating systems. Windows is most commonly used for education because it is easier to learn and use and most computer lab in schools used Windows operating system as their main operating system.
Allah said: O believers! Do not betray the trust of Allah and His Prophet, nor violate your trusts knowingly (Qur’an, 8:26-27). In this Ayah, ALLAH commands: Do not betray the trust. The security information given to other people without permission is a form of betrayal. From the Islamic perspective, it can be relate that windows prioritize user’s privacy information and without the user consent or approval, the other party cannot reveal it to third parties.
However, it is strongly agreed that windows have many advantages than Mac OS like Windows software are commonly used, Windows cost is cheaper and Windows development more stable than Mac OS.
One of the advantages, Windows software are commonly used because the windows manufacture more than Mac OS. Windows software can be found most commonly and every IT store has it, even online websites have unlimited stock. While Mac OS depend only the Apple store for distribution. The finding of Turner (2012) can be summarized as transformation is in progress and still have a lot to do but the progress is better. This article about, they will make the software to be more simple and easy to obtain with better features.
Other reasons are Windows have more advantages over Mac OS in the gaming area because games developer used Windows as their platform to develop game while Mac OS it more complex platform and the games that can be play with it is less than Windows based games. According to Kuan et al., (2011) Windows support games streaming in a variety of resolutions and internet connection at least 256kbps. Stream games used software based platform rather than a centralized service and also consider it a perfect fit for this present study because we focus on the performance of game streaming mechanisms rather than the capacity of service providers (p. 1270). Graphical User Interface windows can make many things using voice command. Window 10 is the recent product by Microsoft that introduce Intelligent Personal Assistant which can be called Cortana that use voice command from user to search or order. This feature give user experience something news and its market higher than other windows product. Windows OS, PC working framework (OS) created by Microsoft Organization to run (PCs). Including the main graphical UI (GUI) for IBM-perfect PCs, the Windows OS soon overwhelmed the PC showcase. Roughly 90 percent of PCs run some variant of Windows (Levy, 2015). The other advantages are with windows notes can be created without using other third party software and can be placed anywhere interface for easy to read. For the student, this feature is attraction for them because notes are important for revision whether using for examination or other thing. This feature only can be found in Windows 10 with new Graphical User Interfaces. Turner (2014) agreed that graphical user interface (GUI), a computer program that enables a person to communicate with a computer through the use of symbols, visual metaphors, and pointing devices. Best known for its implementation in Microsoft Corporation’s Windows operating system, the GUI has replaced the arcane and difficult textual interfaces of earlier computing with a relatively intuitive system that has made computer operation not only easier to learn but more pleasant and natural(p.16). Other advantages are Windows cost is cheaper than Mac OS Not all university students is rich, so they prefer a cheaper laptop to assist their studies in university because nowadays, all assignment use IT platform as material for study. Currently, the price difference between Windows and Mac OS, which is Apple product have the large gap because of that person more used windows and the percentage of Windows user more than Apple user. As of now the world's billions of Windows clients are spread over its more established adaptations, with Windows XP, discharged in 2001, as yet bragging the same introduced base of clients (around 12% piece of the overall industry) as the two-year-old Windows 8.1 (at 13%). The main part of Windows clients (61%), are as yet utilizing Windows 7, discharged in 2009. What's more, that is also the different contrary Windows variants intended for tablets or cell phones. (Gledhill, 2015, p. 15).
The other reasons Windows cost is cheaper are the additional application price for Windows requirement are cheaper than Mac OS. Application for Mac OS is only available on Apple Store which is mostly payable while Windows Phone Store for Windows also have payable application but mostly free to use. It can be summarized that this is energizing on the grounds that Microsoft is planning to tempt designers and scaffold the "application crevice" on Windows gadgets. As of May 2015, the Google Play Store has 1.5m applications, the Apple App Store has 1.4m, while the Windows Phone Store a simple 340,000. Getting designers on board is the most ideal route for Microsoft to make progress in the race to get their gadgets into our pockets (Gledhill, 2015, p.15). Windows manufacturer has several companies such as HP, Toshiba, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, Samsung, Acer and etc. While Mac OS only has one manufacturer which is Apple Incorporation, the competition in business for windows manufacturer is more vigorous and the cheapest product with high quality performance are preferable for the user and buyer. A large portion of every single, numerous Window PCs take into account individuals who aren't capable (or willing) to pay Mac like costs for a PC. (The organization's minimum costly desktop is the $699 Scaled down; its least expensive scratch pad are the white MacBook and 11-in. MacBook Air, both of which begin at $999.) There are unquestionably stun Windows PCs particularly those larded up with demoware, adware and other undesirable programming. Be that as it may, there are likewise fair Windows decisions at each value point, keeping in mind most don't seek to be a definitive figuring machines that Apple manufactures, it's not any more sensible to expel them than it is to thump the Toyota Corolla since it isn't a BMW 3 Arrangement (Mckraken, 2015). Last but not least, Windows development is more stable than Mac OS.
Windows 10 is the most compatible operating system and it is because of Cortana which can be called intelligent personal assistant and knowledge navigator for Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 10. The findings of Bennet (2016) can be summarized as on the off chance that you get email affirmation of flight points of interest, it'll add them to your schedule. In the event that you guaranteed Chuck you'd send him that PowerPoint in an email, Cortana will know, and remind you to satisfy that dedication later on. Future technologies will be more depending on artificial intelligence and Cortana model as turning point of future
technologies. Nowadays, since anyone can use the Internet, the huge user base of this virtual world contains some naughty minds as well. Such people’s whole purpose of using the web is to disturb others or to loot money from others. Online frauds and crimes are very commonly seen on daily news and this is where the antivirus play its part. Windows Defender now has a symbol that shows up in the warning territory and delivers more notices as a matter of course. This makes it clearer to normal Windows clients that Windows 10 has an inherent antivirus securing them. Windows Protector can likewise play out a boot-time disconnected output to discover and expel nastier malware (James, 2016). Windows comes with a variety of function and compatible with every application whether custom made applications or factory made application. Nowadays, many application based on Windows platform and because of this Windows is more preferable. According to Stern (2015), “In recent years, I, like many other reviewers, have argued that Apple's Mac OS X operating system is much better than Windows. That's no longer true. I still give the Mac OS a slight edge because it has a much easier and cheaper upgrade path; more built-in software programs; and far less vulnerability to viruses and other malicious software, which are overwhelmingly built to run on Windows.” In conclusion, it is strongly agreed that the windows has many advantages than Mac OS because Windows software is commonly used, Windows cost is cheaper and Windows development is more stable than Mac OS. Therefore, Adomavicius and Tuzhilin (2012) mentioned that people must take instructional exercise before choose to utilize Windows or Macintosh OS so that user can use it function to full usage. It is also recommend that If you are gamer, you ought to utilize Windows OS since it bolster all amusements over Macintosh OS since Windows hardware compatible with all gaming products with high performance. Microsoft Windows ought to be open source to draw in individuals to utilize it. Windows and Mac OS, each has its advantages and depends on person’s perspective whether which operating system better for them.
