Mac OS X.

Why?

First off, we have to consider our options. The major players are:

Windows, Mac OS, and Linux/Unix

Mac OS is the best because:

- Support for automation (Automator/AppleScript) which is essential

- Better hardware all-around

- Nice functional GUI (comparable to Windows)

- Ability to run all major OS via virtualization

- UNIX root

- Tools support is not bad (Xcode)

In essence, Mac OS is like Windows + Linux/Unix.

Which operating system is better for professional programmers?

The operating system is immaterial. It is the languages used that are important. If you are targeting a specific platform then it obviously makes sense to develop upon that platform, but for cross-platform programming it really makes no difference what operating system you use.

There's no one answer. Different operating systems offer different features. You can choose the best for the job. If you want a decent set of compilers etc, then try Linux. Loads of free things available for programmers. However, it will always remain a bedroom-created operating system so if you want reliability, try something like VMS.

What is operating system on PC?

An operating system (OS) is an interface between hardware and user which is responsible for the management and coordination of activities and the sharing of the resources of a computer, that acts as a host for computing applications run on the machine. As a host, one of the purposes of an operating system is to handle the resource allocation and access protection of the hardware. This relieves the application programmers from having to manage these details.

What is basic bare machine in operating system?

Basic Machine, in computer parlance, means a computer without its operating system. Modern operating systems evolved through various stages, from elementary to the present day complex, highly sensitive real-time systems. In the very first stage of computing there was nothing like an Operating System at all. Programs were fed to the computer system directly using machine language by the programmers without any system software support. This approach is termed the "Bare Machine" approach in the development of operating systems.
