As an Operating System (OS) server, Linux was designed to not often shut down in the operation. The Linux memory leak prevention portion received greater attention than in Windows. That is, the availability of the portion of memory that can be used may be reduced in Windows because after all in the not too distant future the system will be run to start all over again.
1. Early development.
Windows evolved from a micro computer world personal.Karena paced specifically to the needs of the desktop, Windows is very focused on the simplicity of use, approaches to the end user so on. Linux evolved from the Unix world with all the problems of multi-tasking and multi-user. In other words, Linux is designed with the characteristics of a server or high-end workstations. Linux was developed with networking capabilities quite high and since the beginning of his life has been trying to run on a variety of computer architectures, so it does not make the Linux desktop needs as a great destination.
2. Intellectual Property Rights (IPR)
If viewed from the side of the IPR, SO Windows and most application programs, license ownership (average cost $ 200 USD) is an absolute laden to its consumer. While Linux and programs licensed application on the other hand is free and encouraged users to distribute the software.
3. Completion Program
Windows does not provide many programs once installed. Even if there may be just Internet Explorer, Media Player, Notepad, and several small programs lainnya.Sekalipun Linux as well as SO, once installed, will encounter many programs of almost all categories of programs such as Office Suite, Multimedia (Sound, Video, Graphics), Internet (Browser, Email, Chat, Downloader, Messenger, Torrent, News), 3D, Games, Utility, etc.
4. Program Application
Windows superior to Office applications-nya.Diakui that Microsoft Office includes a very good tool to work on the PC such as preparing presentations, writing, reports, agendas dll.Linux excels in web server application, proxy server, firewall, mail server, Samba etc.At the application servers generally X-Windows is no longer used in Linux, therefore Linux is usually more efficient resources (memory and disk) in Windows.Sementara compare Linux community is also trying hard to catch up in its Office applications by developing StarOffice led by Sun Microsystems that can be used freely on top of Linux.
5. System Configuration
Unlike the Windows programs that are ready-made, in Linux there are times when the need to edit the files manually through a command line. But with the PCLINUX Control Center, the system configuration can be done with mudah.PCLINUX have good hardware detection so that almost everything is automated. And almost all of the programs in PCLINUX accompanied by configuration also has ready-made.
6. Support Hardware
Unlike the conveniences found in Windows, a hardware sometimes can not work in this Linux.Hal can occur because hardware makers do not provide drivers Linux.Untungnya version, lately quite a lot of vendors that already provide support for Linux drivers. And the introduction of Linux to be hardware progressively increasing so began rarely heard in Linux hardware problems.
7. Process Management
When we press the Crtl-Alt-Del at the time of system running Windows will look a number of running processes. If the count of 10 and a typical user can recognize most of these processes. When we send the command ps ax on a Linux system will be visible statement that there are more than 20 process is running. Those who do not go into the operating system will not be able to recognize most of these processes.
8. File System
Windows uses the FAT and NTFS. Windows does not distinguish between the use of the name of the file with uppercase and lowercase letters (case insensitive). Windows recognize also the term drive for devices and partitions. Windows has MyComputer as a root, in which there are a variety of drives and devices. Windows also can not read the Linux file system (without the benefit of a separate program). The file system, the file name extension in Windows has an important role. While Linux uses ext2, ext3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs and other sebagainya.Linux can read and write to FAT32, and can read and write NTFS (experimental and utilize a separate project) .Linux distinguish the use of uppercase and lowercase letters in the various aspects of the use of the system operation. On Linux, the term drive is not in use. Used is an ordinary directory. When compared with Windows, Linux recognize the root directory (symbolized by /), in which there are various directories and devices. On Linux, the file name extension does not have an important role.
9. Time Operation
As SO personal workstation, Windows will often shut down when abandoned to save electricity because there will be others who will use the computer. Linux systems are designed to be used jointly by many people. Therefore protection of files and processes belong to a person against another person becomes large portion of the designer's attention. On Linux systems (and Windows NT / 2000 / XP) user identification determine the user permissions. Because it will be found many Linux users who work with the root user (super user name in the Unix world).
10. Protection System
Because Windows systems typically use a particular person, the protection system files on the computer is not a major concern in the design of Windows. Whenever Windows users can delete, rename, move any file directory location in the system. Login is not a requirement for Windows 9x users. With cancel the login prompt, can be obtained permissions everything. Though equally as operating system (OS) computers, Linux and Windows differ in many hal.Karena are two different worlds, then almost everything can be different. Software designed specifically for Windows will not run on Linux, and vice versa.
11. Handle Crash
Compared with Windows 95/98 / ME, Linux is much more stabil.Namun if follow instructions well system, Windows XP is also quite stabil.Unix and Linux have the nature of a multi-user.Linux running applications differently with Windows.Ketika an application is locked, mudah.Cukup you can turn it off by pressing the key combination Ctrl + Esc, and can choose which applications (or processes) which are problematic. And if the graphics system is locked, it could move to the command-prompt (by pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1) and manually kill the process software. Also available is the option to restart the desktop just by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. It means not having to reboot the system even though Linux is experiencing problems.
12. System Sistribusi
Windows only know one distribution that is Microsoft.Sementara, Linux know many distribution is a collection of Linux kernel, libraries - library systems, and software - software that is wrapped with the procedure tertentu.Yang distinguish between the distribution could have on all parts of the (different kernel version and settings, software and different libraries), including pemaketannya procedure.
13. Possible Migration
On the one hand, Windows in its development together with the production line NT servers to Windows 2000 and later Windows XP. On the other hand, open source community continues to develop a graphical user interface to enhance the comfort of Linux for use as a personal workstation. Since the appearance of Windows 2000 and the development of graphical user interface in Linux, Windows equality began to be visible and the Linux operating system for servers and for workstations.
Migrating users from Windows to Linux and vice versa can not occur spontaneously because of habit hard to break. During the use of Windows and application programs are not hindered by having to pay a license, many Windows users would not switch to Linux. The success of Linux in Indonesia grabbed the attention of computer users rely on the right of the authorities in the campaign for respect for intellectual property rights.
B. Equation Command Or Command Windows And Linux
It turns Linux and Windows that not only had many differences but there are also some similarities just as below:
1. Copy / copy one or more files from one location to another is determined.
Windows command: copy
Linux command: cp
2. Create a directory.
Windows command: mkdir
Linux command: mkdir
3. Change the current directory to another directory specified in the parameter.
Windows command: cd
Linux command: cd
4. Removing a directory
Windows command: rmdir
Linux command: rmdir
5. Out of the box or terminal.
Windows command: exit
Linux command: exit
6. Move files from one directory to another directory
Windows command: mv
Linux command: mv
