Additionally, various Windows programs can be executed on Linux with the help of compatibility layers for instance WINE. Linux is compatible with a broader range of free software than Windows.
While talking about security, though Linux is open source, however, it is very difficult to break through and hence it is a highly secure OS when compared to the other operating systems. Its high-tech security is one of the main reasons for Linux popularity and enormous use.
Meanwhile, Linux is open source and has a strong user community. As the entire user base has access to the source code, they can monitor for issues and there are high chances for any vulnerability to be caught earlier than the hackers target it.
Moreover, Linux users will investigate and fix the issue then and there as it is open source. This way, Linux receives a great level of maintenance from its community of developers.
On contrary to this, Windows users can’t fix the issue by themselves as they don’t have the permission to modify the source code. If they catch any vulnerability in the system, then they will need to report it to Microsoft and then wait for it to get fixed.
In Windows, the users have full admin access over the accounts. Thus, when a virus attacks the system, it quickly corrupts the whole system. So, everything is at risk in case of Windows.
On the other hand, Linux enjoys the perk of accounts where limited access is given to the users and hence in case of any virus attacks, only a part of the system will be damaged. The virus won’t be able to affect the whole system as Linux does not run as root by default.
In Windows, we do have a UAC (user account control) mechanism to control the access privileges, though it is not as robust as Linux.
Linux uses IP tables to boost up the security of the system. Iptables help in controlling the network traffic by configuring certain rules enforced through the Linux kernel firewall. This aids in creating a more secure environment for running any command or access to the network.
Linux has segmented working environments which secure it from the attack of virus. However, Windows OS is not much segmented and thus it is more vulnerable to threats.
Another significant reason for Linux being more secure is that Linux has very few users when compared to Windows. Linux has nearly 3% of the market whereas Windows captures more than 80% of the market.
Thus, hackers are always more interested in targeting Windows as the virus or malicious software they create will affect a large segment of users. This, in turn, keeps Linux users safer.
In a nutshell, we can say that Linux has some features which make it more secure than Windows and the other operating systems.
The fact that a majority of the fastest supercomputers of the world that run on Linux can be attributed to its speed. Linux has a reputation for being fast and smooth while Windows 10 is known to become slow and slow over time.
Linux runs faster than Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 along with a modern desktop environment and qualities of the operating system while Windows is slow on older hardware.
Talking about the core capabilities of OS like thread scheduling, memory management, i/o handling, file system management, and core tools, overall Linux is superior to Windows.
There are many reasons for Linux being generally faster than windows. Firstly, Linux is very lightweight while Windows is fatty. In windows, a lot of programs run in the background and they eat up the RAM.
Secondly, in Linux, the file system is very much organized. Files are located in chunks which are very close to each other. This makes the read-write operations very fast. On the other hand, Windows is dumpster and files are present all over the place.
No doubt that Windows 10 is a prettier and safer version of windows when compared to its earlier versions. Windows 10 came up with some new distinctive features like its digital assistant Cortana, Microsoft edge browser, Microsoft office with 3D features.
It also has the ability to execute Linux bash commands. We also have virtual workspaces in Windows 10 which permit its users to execute applications on various desktops.
If you compare Windows 10 desktop environment against Linux Mint 19 desktop environment, you will find that in the ideal state, Linux won’t be using much RAM in the background when compared to Windows.
In comparison, it was found that Linux was using 373 megabytes of RAM and Windows was using 1.3 gigabytes which is around 1000 megabytes more than Linux. This comparison was done on a brand-new installation when no app was open.
Thus, Windows 10 is more resource-heavy than Linux Mint 19. Also, th e updates in Windows 10 are kind of linear in nature and slower than Linux updates. In Linux, we get updates in packages and they are fast as well.
Still, Linux beats Windows 10 when it comes to speed. Talking about the look and feel, Windows UI is very pretty and offers a lot of applications. Linux UI is quite simple and clean. However, you will find alternates of Windows applications in Linux too.
Coming to Gaming, it’s difficult to do in Linux Mint, and also it does not offer many games when compared to Windows 10. Thus, Gaming is a drawback on Linux.
In this article, we have explored almost all the differences between Linux and Windows OS.
So, Which one do you think is the best operating system?
In my opinion, no OS is better than the other. However, both are unique and serve their best to specific user requirements and market needs. Both the OS have different marketing target.
Linux offers great speed and security, on the other hand, Windows offers great ease of use, so that even non-tech-savvy people can work easily on personal computers.
Linux is employed by many corporate organizations as servers and OS for security purpose while Windows is mostly employed by business users and gamers. Talking about cost, there are a lot of factors into the picture when we compare the cost of these two OS.
We can’t make a gross generalization that Linux is totally free or cheaper than Windows. Linux’s license cost is zero, but we do have infrastructure cost, software support cost and IT staffing cost for both Windows and Linux.

Well, i'm going to open a linux club in my college soon andone of my initial presentations will point out how ubuntu/linux clearly scores over windows Now my ppt has to be a really cool one (audience being college students) and the facts should be really strong enough to initiate conversion. I have gathered a few strong facts regarding open source and linux vs windows but i'll be quite grateful if someone can help me out by posting some links to some sites or preferably some ppt slides.................................... Also please hint some cool looking ppt backgrounds P.S:-I have already googled for the phrase "windows vs linux" and went through a lot of ppts n pdfs but all are almost the same.
The best advertisement you could give for linux is to produce an impressive presentation without using powerpoint! Impress (part of Open office) and Latex/beamer are both great ways of doing this. Good luck!
I'm very interested in this for similar reasons. Give a few broad selling points and also give a lot of very quick, COOL things. Give them some nice compiz eye candy (rotating cube, etc.). They love that. Because most of the software is free, it can be maintained by one central location. The whole system can be updated and still ensure than everything works. It's like Windows update, but better because it not only updates the OS, but all of the programs on it too, and it's all seamlessly integrated. Maybe don't scare them too much with the terminal, but if you do something in the terminal, give them some nice one liners. Are you presenting to CS students or to whom? Please post what ideas you currently have or found. I would go easy on the philosophy... most students aren't going to adopt Linux for only philosophical reasons. Give them some good advantages.
Thanks a lot PGScooter for your recommendations. I have kept the same things in mind. I will concentrate on the software packages (coz thats what the people usually spend a lot of time on), minimal use of terminal-linux can be used by noobs even , desktop customizability of linux(gnome+compiz, kde plasma, enlightment)-more beautiful than windows/mac, various possible choices(ubuntu,kubuntu,fedora,etc) open source(describing closed source as evil at the same time ) and pointing out various drawbacks of windows/mac(e.g. BSOD,software installaltion, rolling updates, etc). Well,the audience will be a mix of all branches(CS,IT,Electrical,Civil,etc). Actually, I have seen a lot of steve jobs' presentations and i love the dark backgrounds,large fonts and cool animations and i intend to create a simlar looking ppt.I may not be as good a presenter as he was but at least I can create a similar presentation. any recommendations!!!
Originally Posted by scrogster The best advertisement you could give for linux is to produce an impressive presentation without using powerpoint! +1 A big selling point for linux is assuring people that they will still be able to do everything they use a computer for with little adaptation. (Most users really only use browsers, chat clients, and MS Office anyway) However, you are not going to be able to make a good sales pitch by advertising that something is "just as good". IMHO the best thing about linux, and particularly Ubuntu, is the community. No operating system is bug-free. The thing that sets linux apart is that you can go online and quickly get great answers on how to solve your own problems, instead of leaving it up to a "genius"
You could point out that sometimes command line is easier than browsing. For example sudo apt-get install application123 in a terminal can be easier than : Browse to...website for download double click on exe file... Press button to go for option.. dont install ... so press... etc etc
Here's another thread on this topic, although it's targetted at a computer science club I think: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...hlight=netflix I like the idea of showing them the dual boot. That way, they can still play a certain game or can take their time switching.
Can u provide links to some videos i could show? well, i've the official ubuntu videos and some from the linux foundation but i would like a more detailed one

Three big selling points for non techies are it starts quickly, it shuts down quickly and it runs on older machines. I finally abandoned Windows when my Vista system took four minutes to boot and I was about to reinstall it yet again just so I could log in in a reasonable amount of time.

Fair, but you need to compare Ubuntu to Windows 7.
Nobara Linux just released a new version of the OS (version 40) and it stands in a unique position within the Linux landscape in that it's one of the few distributions that focuses on users of all types… even gamers. Nobara is a modified version of Fedora Linux, with an added layer of user-friendliness.
Also: The first 5 Linux commands every new user should learn
This take on Fedora includes all the necessary proprietary packages, so "point-and-click" users don't have to worry about installing things like multimedia codecs, the software necessary for streaming, or tweak the OS to better play games. Nobara has all of that rolled into a beautiful desktop operating system that would be a welcome home to Windows 11 users.
You can get your game on with Nobara Linux, thanks to Steam.
One thing to keep in mind is that Nobara is not an official spin of Fedora. Although Nobara does use Fedora packages, code, and repositories, this Linux distribution is completely independent.
So, what has Nobara changed from Fedora? Here's a sample:
There are quite a lot of changes that cover a wide array of improvements. You can view the entire list of changes on the Nobara project website .
Although Nobara does seem to cater to gamers, they aren't the only users who would be right at home here. If you need to be productive, there's LibreOffice and InkScape. For web browsing, there's Firefox. For gaming, there's Steam, Wine, ProtonPlus, Lutris, Host Remote Play, and Goverlay.
Also: My 5 must-have Firefox extensions and what I use them for
As for desktop environments, Nobara offers five different versions:
I went with the official version to see what the developers did with Plasma Desktop and (no surprise here) they went with a dark theme. Almost immediately after installation, I opened the Steam app, logged in, and was able to start playing games without so much as a hiccup. It did take some time to finalize the app (lots of downloading in the background), so if Steam seems to be doing nothing but spinning its metaphorical wheels, be patient until it completes downloading and installing everything.
There's also a handy Web Apps tool that allows you to create web apps, even when using Firefox as your default browser (which doesn't allow for creating web apps from sites out of the box). The Web Apps tool even creates menu entries, so you don't have to first open the software to launch your app.
There's a world of software to install from within the app store GUI.
Nobara also includes Flatpak , so if there are apps missing from the menu (and/or the standard repositories), you can install them. Even better, the developers have rolled Flatpak support into the package manager GUI. All you have to do is open the app, click Flatpak at the top center, search for the app you want, and install it. Or, that should be the case. Unfortunately, Yum Extender crashed on me when trying to search for and install a Flatpak app. However, installing from the command line went off without a hitch. For example, to install Slack, the command would be:
Once installed, the Flatpak is listed within Yum Extender (in the Flatpak tab) but there's still no way to install Flatpak apps from within the GUI app store. Maybe this is something the developers have planned for future launches, or maybe it's a bug they've yet to squash.
The performance of Nobara is just as good as you'd expect from a fork of Fedora. As a virtual machine on my System76 Thelio , Nobara ran like an absolute champ. Of course, one would expect such behavior, given that this distribution targets gamers (among other users).
As I said earlier, Nobara isn't just for gamers. After using this Linux distribution for a while, it's quite clear that anyone (no matter the experience) could hop onto this desktop operating system and feel right at home (especially either take on Plasma Desktop).
Also: How to install Steam and start gaming on almost any Linux distro - now it's a Snap
Other than the Flatpak issue, I'm hard-pressed to find fault with Nobara. If I had to really dig in, I would remind anyone looking to make Nobara their default gaming OS that there are limits to the games that can be played via Steam. As you search the Steam Store, make sure you select only games with the Steam icon listed for Platform. If you try to run an app for the Windows platform, it will fail. Don't worry, as there are tons of games available for the Steam platform.
Nobara is a great option for anyone looking to walk away from Windows 11 without losing the ability to play games and be productive. Give Nobara a try and see if it doesn't have you leaving Windows 11 for a more reliable, secure, and flexible OS.
If you're ready to leave windows 11 behind, this is the distro for new linux users, sick of windows or macos you should check out this free, easy-to-use alternative, when windows 10 support runs out, you have 5 options but only 2 are worth considering.

Airlines to banks to retailers were affected in many countries. Businesses are struggling to recover.
By Eshe Nelson and Danielle Kaye
Eshe Nelson reported from London and Danielle Kaye from New York.
Across the world, critical businesses and services including airlines, hospitals, train networks and TV stations, were disrupted on Friday by a global tech outage affecting Microsoft users.
In many countries, flights were grounded, workers could not get access to their systems and, in some cases, customers could not make card payments in stores. While some of the problems were resolved within hours, many businesses, websites and airlines continued to struggle to recover.
A series of outages rippled across the globe as information displays, login systems and broadcasting networks went dark.
The problem affecting the majority of services was caused by a flawed update by CrowdStrike , an American cybersecurity firm, whose systems are intended to protect users from hackers. Microsoft said on Friday that it was aware of an issue affecting machines running “CrowdStrike Falcon.”
But Microsoft had also said there was an earlier outage affecting U.S. users of Azure, its cloud service system. Some users may have been affected by both. Even as CrowdStrike sent out a fix, some systems were still affected by midday in the United States as businesses needed to make manual updates to their systems to resolve the issue.
George Kurtz, the president and chief executive of CrowdStrike, said on Friday morning that it could take some time for some systems to recover.
Here’s a visual explanation for how a faulty software update crippled machines.
