Solaris and Linux are based upon Unix system. Their principle is the security and stability.\nWindows developed by Microsoft and its principle the easy-to-use.

Just as Linux and Sun Solaris are based on Unix, the Mac operating system is also. It is not an emulator. It is a result of an open-source development project called Darwin, with hundreds of programmers all working to make improvements in Free BSD so it would be the best Unix version available for home use. Of course, it has a graphic interface since Apple Computer was the first company to sell a home computer with windows and a mouse.\n\nWith virtually no exceptions, all versions of Unix use a graphic interface because it's a total waste of time to type commands instead of just clicking with a mouse. But if you want to control the computer by typing Unix commands, that is available, for example, by just opening the Terminal application. Be careful, though, Unix commands can do almost anything in the way of changing or deleting files!

Those should already be the defaults, so you\nshouldn't have to do anything.\n\nBy the way, that OS is somewhere in the ballpark\nof 15 years old.  I'm somewhat surprised to be\nseeing questions about it :-)  It might be worth\npointing out that the current release of Solaris\nas well as the compilers (including Fortran) are\navailable for free if you wish to upgrade.

For novice computer users Windows is the best. However for a bit of experienced users Linux is the in thing. Linux is more stable, secure, fast, provides better connections to the internet, better graphics, etc etc. Moreover for Linux you dont have to pay money.

Why don't you try the live on cd versions of most of these distributions, before you decide on the version you install? Advantages are, you'll be able to select the one whose look and feel suit you best, and you will also know your hardware compatibility with each distribution before you actually install it. \nI've been meddling around with the live on cd versions of Mandriva, Linspire and PCLinuxOS. You might even think about ease of installation, in which case you could visit www.slynux.org, or try PCLinuxOS. \nI personally am planning on installing Mandriva or Ubuntu. Will be giving it a bit more thought, though!\nA list of distributions is available at :\nhttp://www.linux.org

Try this site\nhttp://slashdot.org/articles/05/03/14/0157201.shtml\nIt looks to me as though you just need to look at each screen and type each command as prompted, there seems to be some amount of automated installation to make things easier.\nIf you still have trouble mail me and I'll see if I can help, mind you I haven't used solaris myself so it may be the blind leadin the blind.

Try doing a google search for the different linux versions. Once you know which one you like, do the google search:\n\n"download [linux version]"\n\nThat should at least bring you to somewhere that can help.\n\nI downloaded the Fedora Project and Mandrake (Mandrix) Linux. Got Mandrake 10 and WinXP installed as dual boot.

If you are knowledge in Linux, Gentoo will be good choice. Otherwise, Windows

The big ones are Microsoft and Macintosh for the PC market, for the Unix market there are quite a few including Solaris, HP-UX, LynxOS, Various flavors of Linux such as "Red Hat" (which is open source), Concurrent and many others.\n\nTo know what you are looking for though we would need to know more about your needs.  When shopping for an OS there are a few questions you should answer first:\n\n- how much money do you want to spend?\n- what are you going to use it for?  Web Server, Application Prototyping, Real-Time systems, File Server?\n- what other systems will it have to interract with?\n- what type of user interface should it have?\n\nGood luck

Check out Knoppix Live, probably one of the best live CDs out there, http://www.knoppix.org/\n\nSee a screenshot here, http://abcdelasecurite.free.fr/img/bureau-knoppix-mib-11b-grand.jpg\n\nThough no Linux distro is easy for a Windows user to jump into, I can't think of a single one.\n\nIt should or shouldn't be debian based, Knoppix is based on debian.  Which distro are you looking for?

If you use something besides windows operating system, I do not think you can call it a Windows based system. Anyhow the Redhat and Lindows Linux distributions are both interesting.

for a database system you can use something like windows 2003 or windows NT for distributed systems you can use windows NT or linux
