    For my opinion between Windows and Linux, Windows is the best operating system

    can be implemented for university. MS-Windows is an operating system that uses a


    graphic environment as its interface. An interface like this means the user can open
    several windows and each window can be used for a specific purpose. In each
    window, there are icons and menus that are used to give commands. The user can
    make use of guide instruments such as mouse to click on the icon or menu.

    There are many advantages of MS-Windows. The following are factors that
    make MS-Windows popular nowadays :

    i. Easy To Use

    It uses graphic objects to represent the pull-down menu as well as icons
    as the interface. Users can simply drag the mouse and click on the
    graphic object. Users can also choose whether to use the keyboard or not
    when using a computer.

    ii. Easy To Manage

    It represents all computer components in virtual form. For example, users
    can view files, storage capacity and processor speed through the provided
    interface. MS-Windows provide wizards for activities such as software
    installation or new hardware drives.

    iii. Support a Variety of Hardware and Software

    As an open operating system, it is compatible to most software and
    hardware from different manufactures. This is made possible by following
    set standards.
    iv. Reliable

    This is based on organized procedures of use from the start until to end of
    the system. The procedures prevent the software operation from hanging
    or losing reference in memory. A recovery function is created in order to
    save a copy of an unsaved file in case of a power failure.

    v. Safer

    MS-Windows can block access to any programme, file, folder or other
    resources in the network.
