Microsoft Windows 7

Windows 7 is the best OS from Microsoft I have ever experienced...

Easy to install... Crash free... Fabulous Graphics Support for HQ Games.. And more...

Windows Vista is the worst OS from Microsoft...+1347

Very simple to install and better UI also best security.

Very good themes.+696

Less virus detector... And fabulous display... Maximum features And many more+615

Not the best when I used it, here's a list of OS with problems out of all of these I used:

- Windows 7 is pretty slow with the Aero theme when I use it.

- Windows 8, ME and Vista is buggy.

- Windows 10 has privacy problems.

- Windows 8.1 is basically the same thing as Windows 8.

- Windows XP has security problems and insecure for my liking.

- Windows 95 (and probably 98) is too unstable.

- Viruses are common in Windows.

- Debian has no real wifi support (to me).

- OpenSUSE can't install properly.

2. Ubuntu

Ubuntu is a mixture of Windows and Macintosh. Looks like mac but shortcut keys is similar to
windows. Great work. I love it+669

They should sell computers with Ubuntu pre-installed!

I really like the OS, but the thing that so bad is that it uses java iced tea and not java sun
But much better than windows Vista+441

It really rock me. Windows os gets nothing. Haha sorry to all windows users

3. Windows 10

It's fast, It's reliable, It takes full responsibility of every move you do. It is the Windows of the
future, It is worth every penny you've spent to buy this because of its features, Design, Speed,
Accuracy, Privacy, and Security. If you even hesitated to buy Windows 7, Just buy this OS, Who
knows, Maybe in the future some programs you need are only compatible with windows 10.+94

The future coming OS! There are lots of great features in Windows 10! Some of the great
features are combined old start menu + new metro apps, tablet mode, continuum, Cortana,
Microsoft Edge, notification center, multitasking desktop and many more... And there are coming
developing technologies which will work with Windows 10 like Microsoft Surface, HoloLens. The
best thing is the same OS will work on all platforms whether it is phone, tablet, Xbox, laptop or
desktop! All data will be syncing.. Transferable data across all platforms! The future is here!

4. Android

What about Chrome OS?

Not the same as android

In a year it will be the number 3 OS+132

Yeah but chrome does seem to be the most used web browser in the world

Android 4.1 is a fairly stale operating system with great customization options. Fun withgets will
light your way into a a very interesting society, where you control everything. I would
recommend this operating system in a heartbeat!+111

Android is definitely the best operating system because it is an upcoming fairly new OS that is
very simple and is very safe in the way of virus protection and speed.+50
Best Operating System for Media, am having a Kit Kat here and that is just 10 percent or such of
the market of Android systems.

5. Arch Linux

A nice and stable Linux OS, it is like a Lego game. You can build around your kernel what you
want, without the need of major hacks. Indeed, not desirable for beginners, but also not so
unstable and complicated like Gentoo. I was trying Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Gentoo, Suse and Arch
- Arch was the winner for me. I hesitated between Arch and Gentoo a time, but finally found
Arch repos more consistent and up to date+10

Other OS' customizability pale in comparison to Arch Linux's customizability; you only have to
install what you need, making it the most versatile modern operating systems you can run.
Pacman provides a fantastic experience for installing applications without the need to scour the
internet in search of a download. The likelihood of getting a virus on linux is practically
nonexistent, and Arch Linux can run lightning fast. The OS is also updated frequently via a rolling
release, and the process of updating one's system is quite unobtrusive.+4

The rolling release strategy is very important.+2

10/10, perfect for me. It may be complicated but it's a great customize-able masterpiece

6. Mac OS X Leopard

I just love mac os x leopard+24

Awesome very simple and reliable better than windows

I like it ver+18

Mac OS X Leopard is a MAJOR leap for Apple. It's very good! The only problem I have with it is
that Apple doesn't support it anymore; so I updated to Mac OS X Snow Leopard. It's almost just
like Mac OS X Leopard and best of all, it's not obsolete!

7. Macintosh OSX

By far one of the easiest operating systems to learn for a complete beginner (although switching
from windows has a slight learning curve). Ideal for the artist and everyday user, the Mac OS is a
personal favourite. The fact that it's unix based makes it quite similar to linux with very similar
terminal commands. The only downside to Mac OS is the small range of games and the high
price of the Macintosh computer required to run Mac OS X+161

Unfair to classify OSX as a single stand-alone OS and compare it to Windows as a long list of very
different systems from 3.1 to whatever they're doing this week. OSX is a variant of Unix based on
FreeBSD which is in turn based on BSD that predates MSDOS by a decade (~) by my recollection.
Microsoft should join the rest of the world and help create a unified OS core such that each
variant merely offers their own "flavoured" shell. Windows was nothing but a menu system for
MSDOS. A Unified system would solve many of the problems of writing code for all computers to
use.

8. Slackware

Linux for non-dummies. Climbing the learning curve to get it running forces you to know Linux
from the inside out and to know Linux 100 times better than most people.+2

Awesome and really makes mind to work

It is easy if you know it!

Best OS (LINUX) and best LINUX distribution ever. have started with it (so not true it's not for
beginners) and even tried other distributions always returned back to SLACKWARE as it seems to
be only distro that's easy to administrate and use

9. Chromium OS

This is for internet only, it is not recommended when you use to play games, you can play but in
browser games only+2

You can only access the internet. But that good for browser gamers!+2

Can't run it on my 64 bit but looks good, fast, secure and crash free. Also chromium is better
than chrome.

10. Windows Vista

Amazing operating system. Most people who used Vista and hated it were using it on
underpowered computers. If you use it on adequate hardware that can take advantage of Vista's
features, it's an amazing experience.

Vista was also very important; it created the path for other, newer version of Windows, many
pieces of the path still seen to this day. 7, which is #1 of course, would be very different without
Vista.

Vista is also quite stable and can perform very well, on adequate hardware. With Service Pack 2,
it became a great replacement for XP, and an awesome OS in general. Unfortunately, it was
slammed by critics and techies when it first came out, for good reason. It ran slow on most
hardware, it was buggy and was overblown with features. Things were patched and streamlined,
and in the end, it became a great OS for just about anything.

All in all, Windows Vista is an amazing operating system that was sabotaged by a mediocre
launch. I would definitely give this ...more - SGWaS+5

Piece of garbage, I believe someone was stoned when they approved this production+15

People only truly had problems with Vista is because it was before it's time, if Windows 7, 8, or
10 came out at the time a lot of the issues people faced with Vista would still be there. Either
way Vista still crushes every other windows aesthetically, bad or not.

11. Fedora

The greatest! Does not crash. FREE. All services built in - web server (apache, php sql), dns
server... Etc... - eddie+183
Fedora is definitively the best operating system out there. All software is out of the box, and with
boxes, you can install multiple operating system into fedora. There is no reason to not use fedora
over anything else.+83

Best OS and Free of Cost. Much more uptime compared to windows. Timely Updates, proper
use, no crash and Boxes help to build VM under Fedora+61

One of the best operating systems out there

12. Gentoo

It's the fastest OS in the world...+11

Gentoo is built the the specific hardware that you have and can run on almost any system.
Installation is a pain in the ass though.+2

The most empowering OS
