Windows vs Android
In early 2005, when Google bought the Android Operating system after financially backing it for a long time, little did the world know that the it was witnessing history in the making. Fast forward 3 years to October 2008 and we come to a time which has the right to be heralded as a "milestone in the history of Technology". The event? The first Android phone was sold.
Now rewind to 1985 when the Microsoft Windows OS was unveiled to the world as the brainchild of Microsoft (partnered with IBM). The world witnessed something that was never seen before-Technology so advanced at that time that the fine line between magic and science appeared to be crossed. If only they knew what that event would trigger and would result in today-An epic battle to gain the upper hand and be anointed the prime ruler of the Technological world.
Although many expert argue about the superiority of their particular champion, a subjective look inside the debate of which OS is in fact better reveals no particular winner. The aspects which have to be taken into consideration and then analysed are:
1)store:
The Android store has a proud 700,000 apps to boast of: Clearly encompassing the relatively insignificant armada of 130,000 apps on the Windows store. However, since Android has been in the mobile application field longer than Windows, this comes as no surprise. So I guess a I have no choice but to award to point to Android in this aspect.
2)Devices:
Android operates on a wide array of devices such as LG, Motorola, Samsung, Google etc. Which the windows works primarily on Nokia, HTC and a select few Samsung devices. The saturation and deficiency of devices for Windows platform have inevitable increased the cost of such devices. Since majority of phones are compatible with Android, a lot of low end consumer devices are available.
3)IDE:
The IDE (Integrated Development Interface) is in layman terms the software which enables the programmer to design and deploy applications for
