What is suitable operating system for scientific calculations and multimedia?

Totally different things .... Multimedia : Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP Professional. Windows XP Home is also okay but has lots of bugs than XP Pro. To me Microsoft 2000 Professional is the BEST Operating System Microsoft has ever created ... Scientific Calculations : Depends on what kinds of software applications or tools you run for your scientific calculations. go for Sun Solaris UNIX or Linux Flavours. I Mean Gentoo Linux and Red Hat Linux are the best Linux flavors. I u want both things then Best approach is to have Windows 2000 Professional with SP4 installed as well as either Red Hat Linux (Fedora Core) or Gentoo Linux installed on the same hard-drive with a DUAL Boot mode. I have DUAL Bool with Windows 2000 Pro as well as Fedora Core which is Red Hat Linux version 10.

What is the best Operating System for personal desktop?

The best operating systems for personal desktop computing in the order of their rating: 1. Windows 7. 2. Ubuntu Linux. 3. Windows XP. If you are a resource cautious consumer, then "Ubuntu linux" or "Windows XP" is a good choice. If you want to have a good look and feel along with better performance, then "Ubuntu linux" or "Windows 7" is a good choice. Personally, I prefer "Ubuntu linux". Its performance, look and feel is optimized than the other mentioned Operating systems. It is also as user friendly as windows operating systems. It's security levels are high that you do not ever need to bother about getting infected vith malware. The other good thing about it is it is free and is comes bundled with the best free software. Maintenance is pretty easy while compared to the other operating systems.
