Linux vs. Windows
0 likes662 views
The document discusses Linux vs Windows from a software engineering perspective. It examines which Linux distribution and Windows version should be compared and outlines various comparison factors like functionality, performance, dependability and usability. Ubuntu, Slax and Windows are compared based on these factors, with Linux noted to be better for servers and security/reliability, while Windows is focused more on desktop users and current status. The conclusion is that the nature of the producer can significantly impact requirements.
