Who is the best? Best out of best?

Who is the best? (out of best). This is a argument you me and everyone faced for many years. Yes I am talking about the operating systems. In another word I am talking about Windows, MAC OS, Linux, Unix or any other system you use.


Can you really say what is the best or what it the worst? Even good? Different Operating systems have different targets, different requirements set. More than that there is a different budget. So before we decide what is the best operating system you might have to think about that as well.

What is secure or what is not secure. In terms of security if some one is boasting my system is secure I can bet you that you have the least secure system around. That is simply because conditions change rapidly and you might be secure today but not tomorrow. How can you measure it. Most of the time we tend to call it secure if we are protected to known vulnerabilities. How about the things that never occurred?

What I use and what I am familiar with is the best OS?

I believe what I have been using for sometimes and familiar OS is the best. Because I know how to get things done. I know all the hacks tricks and tweaks for it. Do you?

For some reason I can get things done with a slow old computer with less RAM and computational power. Where others struggle to move the mouse. Thats a secret.

You can see people argue that Windows is better than MAC, MAC is better than any other operating system. You cannot beat power of Unix and Linux.

Lets take it in another way? Imagine only one operating systems exists with its current status. (Because when there is no competition things can be changed. Specially price and quality). Come up with one cool thing for the main Operating systems that you can find (Windows, MAC, Linux & UNIX). How would the world goes only with Windows? or MAC or Linux & Unix?
