Mac OS X is based on BSD, which is similar to Linux. Because of this, it is fairly easy to port programs between the two operating systems. However, the two operating systems are not the same, and programs for one don't work on the other. Linux also uses the X window system, and Mac doesn't, though Mac has a program to support programs that use the X window system. Because of this, Linux programs can be configured to run on Mac OS X with a little elbow grease, but not the other way around.
instead of windows you can have linux or mac. they are different, but you will know whats best for you when you try them, linux is free to download.but you need an operating system (windows, mac, linux or any other OS) for the computer to work
The main advantages of Mac OS X over Linux are primarily the former's more widespread popularity and support. Mac OS X has more appeal because Apple, Inc.m its creator, created a popular portable media player known as the iPod. As Linux is not created by any single company, it has to gain users through it's own technical merits. Since there are more users available for Mac OS X, more companies also release products for it, whereas fewer products are available for Linux. With fewer programs available, people are less attracted to Linux for its other benefits, such as low cost or reliability.
Linux is a operating system, just like Windows and Mac OS. Unlike Windows and Mac OS Linux is free and open source. Some popular Linux distributions include, Fedora, Redhat, Ubuntu, Centos, and many more. If you would like to play around with linux try downloading a virtualization program and installing Linux on it.
Because it has multiple WINDOWS for programs to run in, just like the Mac OS of the time........... In short, use linux.
