For personal use the big ones are Windows and Leopard for MacOS (Apple computers). There are a number of Linux flavors which exist. Another OS is ReactOS. That is a free, open source clone of Windows, though it has a long ways to go.

How is Windows os compared with iPhone os?
Both Windows and the iPhone OS are operating systems in which they provide an interface between software and hardware, but that's where the similarities end. The iPhone OS is designed specifically for Apple's iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad mobile devices, and runs a modified Darwin Linux kernel. The same base operating system (Darwin) is also found on the Mac OS X operating system, albiet modified for use on a personal computer. The iPhone OS is also designed to be run on a system that contains an ARM processor. It currently cannot be run on any other system, except the iPhone Simulator contained within the iPhone SDK. The Windows family of operating systems is a more generalized operating system designed primarily for consumer desktop and laptop computers, although specialized versions for mobile phones and other embedded devices exist. Unlike the iPhone OS, Windows is able to be run on a wider variety of processors including Intel, AMD, and in the case of older Windows operating systems; PowerPC, Alpha, and MIPS processors.
How system software is dependent on machine architecture?
Operating systems supervise the low-level operations of the hardware of the machines they run on. They make use of CPU features, such as privilege levels and dynamic address translation, which exist primarily to support the operating system. As a result, operating systems are inherently architecture-dependent.
