Some laptops are sold completely clean: there is no OS on them. And which one is better to put then? Now the light has not converged like a wedge on Windows.

At the moment, there are, in fact, three types of OS:

And each of them has its own peculiarities of use.

And the cost is also different for all of them. However, this is not the key factor.

Performance also depends on the hardware in your laptop itself.

Nevertheless, you can always find the best option even for a not strong powerful device.

The assortment is now more than wide.

Windows

Windows operating system

The most common operating system in the world is Windows.

Most games and applications are also released on it. However, there are misunderstandings with her.

Every PC user had to reinstall the system at least once due to various malfunctions, slowdowns in the system, and so on.

So, we can say that the development of Bill Gates has become the most popular and the most problematic, oddly enough.

Currently Microsoft supports several versions of this OS – Windows 10, Windows 8 (8.1) and Windows 7.

The latter, by the way, is the most widespread in the world, even though the main support has been discontinued.

Let’s figure out in order what is better to install 12 diagonals on a laptop, for example.

Helpful information:

If you are not sure which OS to choose, pay attention to the EasyBCD program. It is a convenient and simple tool that provides control over the loading of two or more operating systems. The utility is intended for users of different platforms, from Windows to Linux

Windows 7

Windows 7 operating system

It was released back in 2009. So it is not surprising that by 2020 the company is going to completely stop supporting this product.

However, this OS will be a good choice for older or lower-powered computers.

System requirements

Architecture	32-bit	64-bit
CPU	1 GHz IA-32	1 GHz x86-64
RAM	1 GB	2 GB
Video card	with support for DirectX 9.0 or higher
Free space on hard disk, GB	sixteen	twenty

Thus, this option is fine for your laptop. Programs will be easy to get up.

For non-advanced users, there shouldn’t be any major difficulties.

Everyone can figure out the design. Moreover, the Windows Aero style is no longer surprising.

Security is average, so don’t neglect installing an antivirus.

However, it is not worth considering this operating system in the long term. Now you can find something better

Windows 8 (8.1)

Windows 8 operating system

This version went on sale in 2012. Following it, two years later, 8.1 appeared as an update.

In the latter, some mechanisms were improved, conflicts were debugged and power consumption improved, which, in principle, is important for your laptop.

When Windows 8 was first introduced to users, many said that it would be inconvenient to work on a PC, that it was designed for tablets and other touchscreens.

However, it turned out that you can safely work with a regular cursor.

The design was still a bit unusual for 7 and XP users. However, this is one of the features of version 8.1.

In addition, an app store has appeared.

It is not very large, but you no longer have to search for and download some programs on the Internet. The process is optimized, so to speak.

However, this OS will already be a little more demanding in the internal component of your computer.

But you will also get a slightly more functional product.

System requirements

Processor – 1 GHz * or faster with PAE, NX, and SSE2 support
RAM – 1 GB (for 32-bit) or 2 GB (for 64-bit)
Hard disk space – 16 GB (for 32-bit) or 20 GB (for 64-bit)
Video Adapter – Microsoft DirectX 9 with WDDM driver

In fact, the eight is already a thing of the past.

The owners of this OS can easily upgrade to the new version, the tenth.

In fact, support for 8.1 itself will be discontinued in the next few years.

So, perhaps, this option, although relevant, is not very practical in the long term.

Windows 10

Windows 10 operating system

It is this operating system that is the latest in the lineup of operating systems from Microsoft. The company has worked hard on it.

In addition, a way to popularize the system itself was specially thought out. This was done through free updates.

They were limited in time, but many users took advantage of this opportunity.

The “Ten” appeared on the market in 2015. Among its advantages at the moment is constant and continuous support.

That is, the developers are working to improve the stability and performance of the system.

By the way, you cannot refuse these updates. Not that you won’t resist. You simply won’t be given a choice – turning off updates in Windows 10 is tantamount to making it rain.

Plus, it’s easy to install an operating system on your laptop.

It is no longer necessary to have a disc, as was the case with the seven. It is enough to download the system itself from the website, create an installation media and install.

However, don’t forget to buy a key (you can now purchase it separately). Well, or activate the OS by other methods.

Windows 10 has learned to work with high-resolution screens, and also supports two desktops. That is, for those who work with images and video, this OS will be to their liking.

And the OS is already more functional than its predecessors. This is evidenced by many factors, in particular, it is confirmed by special tests.

By the way, the company said that the Ten will be the last in the lineup of this family.

However, this does not mean that nothing new will appear on the market.

It’s just that this OS will be constantly modified. Support will not end. This means that there will always be plenty of updates.

When the system first came out, it was often called crude.

At the moment, however, it will work fine on most modern PCs. So, from Microsoft, it is better to install exactly ten on a 12 ” laptop, even despite the shortcomings.

They are, of course. Like other products from Microsoft, this version also tends to be buggy. Smaller than its predecessors, but still.

And some users also complain about OS espionage. There were even several lawsuits in court.

If you don’t like the fact that Windows 10 collects information about you, you can turn this off. You just have to dig into the settings well.

System requirements

Processor – 1 GHz * or faster with PAE, NX, and SSE2 support
RAM – 1 GB (for 32-bit) or 2 GB (for 64-bit)
Hard disk space – 16 GB (for 32-bit) or 20 GB (for 64-bit)
Video Adapter – Microsoft DirectX 9 with WDDM driver

That is, they do not differ from previous versions. So, you don’t have to update your hardware to install the operating system on your laptop.

macOS

MacOS operating system

Everyone has heard about Apple. And he knows that their products are distinguished by both good quality and the corresponding price.

In their lineup, all devices operate under their own system and shell. So for laptops the OS was created – macOS.

This system has a lot of features. And appearance is just the tip of the iceberg.

Among the advantages of macOS, the number of viruses is negligible compared to Windows.

In principle, this is also influenced by the fact that this development from Apple is not as massive as Windows.

Accordingly, it is better for hackers to create something that can hit many targets, rather than torment themselves over the fact that only a few computers are hooked.

In addition, not all programs run on macOS.

Of course, now there are a lot of analogues and developers are creating special versions for this OS, but keep in mind that not everything will work. So avid gamers should probably stop at Windows.

Basically, macOS is very easy to use. Moreover, it works quite quickly and rarely hangs.

If you’re worried about not owning a MacBook, take it easy.

You can install an operating system on a laptop. Yes, you have to tinker a little, but you have to pay for a stable product either time or traditional.

Some of the latest versions are macOS Sierra and OS X El Capitan.

Moreover, the first already has support for Siri, an assistant. In general, each updated version offers its own services to the user.

Unlike Windows, updates are often visible to regular users.

For example, in macOS, Sierra provides better interaction with the Apple Watch and iPay system.

This way you can see what new features have appeared.

Linux

Linux operating system

Not many people have heard of Linux. In fact, it is precisely a system with this name that does not exist.

Everything works on the basis of distributions. And do not be intimidated by this word.

In fact, Linux is just the foundation, the foundation. And to create a house, you also need walls and a roof. In essence, these elements are distributions.

And now they are by no means a small number. The most common in this case is Ubuntu.

It is not difficult to install this operating system on a laptop.

Just download the OS from the official website and create an installation flash drive. On top of that, you don’t have to break anything or buy keys.

This OS is completely free. True, during installation, you will be offered to make a charitable contribution, but this is all absolutely at your request – there is no obligation here.

Yes, of course, Ubuntu is not the most widely used system in the world.

Games on it will not stand up too much, so gamers can pass by.

But such a system is not pretentious, it easily gets up on low-power computers.

The advantages of the system include the absence of viruses.

As with macOS, it is even more disadvantageous for attackers to target an audience as small as Ubuntu users.

This OS is very different in appearance from Windows. It is even closer to Apple’s development in this regard.

Managing Ubuntu is easy. Most of all, users are annoyed only by the location of the “close” and “minimize” buttons. They are on the left side, while Windows on the right. However, you can easily get used to it.

Ubuntu is pretty stable. For work and leisure, this system is a very good option.

And if you take into account that you do not need to pay for it and support is provided in any case, then the OS claims to be a good place in the review.

In addition, you can learn to program on this OS. Even dummies will sometimes have to open a terminal and write rudimentary code to update “sudo apt-get update”.

And many research centers and companies use Linux-based systems.

The reason for this is availability, stability and low resource requirements.

Thus, Ubuntu and its other counterparts (Kubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian, and so on) are a good alternative. Especially if you use your laptop mostly for work and Internet surfing.

You can download the Linux Mint program on our website at the link

However, this system also has enough alternative programs to those that work only on Windows.

And, besides, through the special Wine software, you can work with some applications with the .exe resolution, you can even try to install your favorite games.

If you can’t figure it out in any way, this OS has quite powerful user support.

Before asking your question on the forum, make sure there is no answer yet.

It often happens that a problem like yours has long been sorted out

So which is the best to install?

So what to install?

As mentioned earlier, it all depends on the purpose of your computer.

Windows is the most common. He is also loved by gamers, designers and all other users who deal with various programs.

For connoisseurs, macOS is very suitable. It is stable, offers great functionality, has good performance and speed.

In addition, it synchronizes perfectly with all Apple products.

For advanced users or those who want a stable, simple system, in fact, for free, Linux systems will be the best choice.

For everyday tasks, this is a great offer. As well as for slightly outdated devices that cannot handle Windows 10.

That is, carefully evaluate the advantages of each OS and choose what you like and according to the capabilities of the laptop itself.

What to look for when choosing a Linux distribution

There are a huge number of Linux versions. The site DistroWatch.com in history there were more than 700. How to choose among this abundance? There are two main criteria to watch out for:

The popularity of the distribution. The more famous your distribution is, the easier it will be to find manuals on the web. A large community means that you can easily get help on thematic forums if you have any difficulties in mastering the distribution. Finally, the more common it is, the more applications and packages are ported for it. It is better to choose popular solutions with a ready-made package base than to struggle with building from source in some exotic distribution.
The development team that deals with it. Naturally, it’s best to look at distributions that are supported by large companies like Canonical Ltd., Red Hat, or SUSE, or have large communities.

Keep in mind that even the best Linux distributions have analogues that are not much inferior to them. If you are not satisfied with the choice of Lifehacker, you can try alternatives.

Criterias of choice

Before choosing a GNU / Linux distribution, there are two main questions to answer:

Are you ready to use GNU / Linux?
What tasks will be solved on the selected device?

The answer to the first question is usually no, because most people are used to Windows, although they may not know what they will encounter. The fact is that any GNU / Linux distribution, no matter how similar it may be to a Microsoft product, has many differences. For an ordinary user, this will not be a big problem – he will still be able to use the browser, listen to music and print documents. You just have to get used to the new interface. With more study of the system, the difference with Windows will become more and more felt.

In fact, there are very few distributions that are only suitable for powerful computers. And it’s not even the OS itself, but the graphical shell that will be installed with it. Any GNU / Linux system will run faster than Windows on older hardware. Therefore, it is worth deciding on the tasks that, to a greater extent, depend on the computer itself, and then move on to choosing a system.

The main criteria for choosing a GNU / Linux distribution include:

processor architecture. It is important that the OS is suitable for the architecture, otherwise it will not even install;
RAM consumption. For weak hardware, this is an especially important point, since it is necessary to have the maximum possible amount of free memory to run programs;
maintainability. There are many good distributions that are out of date and the developers do not release updates for them. In such cases, there is a risk of having an open “hole” in the system, due to which the level of security will be insufficient. For active operating systems, new “patches” are always released in the form of patches, and for them you can find support on the Internet on an issue of interest.

The specification of the rest of the computer’s nodes by the type of the video card is not so important, since they only limit the performance of specific user tasks, and not the entire OS.

Note! Having an active Internet connection makes it easy to install a required program or ask for help from the community.

TOP 7 GNU / Linux Distributions

This list includes those systems that have proven their stability in practice with the slightest user intervention in their work.

Short review

It is worth saying a few words about each of the presented OS.

Lubuntu

Ubuntu operating system with preinstalled LXDE graphical shell (transition to LXQt is expected). By default, it lacks visual effects when working with windows, as well as reduced functionality, which significantly reduces the requirements for computer resources.

After installation, the system takes 3 GB of hard disk space. It is recommended that you allocate at least 10 GB for the root partition for software installation and system logging.

Puppy Linux

A very lightweight distro requiring only 64MB of RAM. The minimum computer requirements are dictated by a simple window manager. In fact, this is not an ordinary system, but a set of distributions based on Ubuntu and Slackware of different versions.

A special feature of Puppy Linux is working from a flash drive without installation with the ability to save the session. In this case, the speed of work will be much faster than from a disk, due to the use of RAM.

antiX

The system also belongs to the category of too little demanding, because it needs 256 MB of RAM, any processor and up to 3 GB of the size of the root partition to work. It is based on Debian and has several window managers to choose from.

Like Puppy Linux, antiX can run from a USB stick and save changes.

Damn Small Linux

The record holder for the minimum computer requirements. It needs between 16 MB of RAM and ~ 50 MB of space for the root. Based on Debian.

Despite such a small size, the set comes with a music player, browser, text and graphic editors and other programs of frequent use. The only one of the presented distributions that is no longer supported by the developer.

Linux Mint

An Ubuntu-based distribution that has long held the top spot on Distrowatch for popularity among GNU / Linux. Differs in ease of use by beginners, which is why it also has some drawbacks in the type of optional (and not mandatory, as in most OS) security updates.

The most common edition with the Cinnamon graphical shell. Despite its attractive appearance compared to the reviewed systems, it does not require a lot of resources.

Fedora

The distribution kit is an “experimental platform” for Red Hat and CentOS, as it installs the latest software versions. The system supports multiple desktop environments, but the lightest is LXQt.

As with Debian systems, Fedora has global updates a couple of times a year, so you don’t have to worry about a full hard drive.

Manjaro Linux

The undisputed leader of the Arch Linux-based Distrowatch, supporting a variety of graphical shells (including custom builds). It is easier to say that GNOME consumes the most resources relative to others. Even KDE doesn’t require as much RAM as GNOME now.

Manjaro is the only distribution in this top that officially runs exclusively on the x86_64 architecture. In general, i386 processors are already rare, so it is difficult to find hardware on which the system will not start. The only obvious drawback is the presence of at least 1 GB of RAM.

The best lightweight Linux distros for older laptops and computers

Note: the list is not in a specific ranking order, look at the system requirements to pick one for yourself.

15 Slax

Support for 32-bit systems: Yes

Slax is a really portable and lightweight Debian based Linux distribution that you can use on a USB stick without having to install it.

The ISO file size is just under 300MB, making it a great option for older computers. The interface is simple and easy to use, with the necessary pre-installed packages for the average user. You can even try tweaking the OS and making changes on the fly if you need to.

Try it!

Minimum system requirements for Slax:

RAM: 128 MB (offline) / 512 MB (for use in a web browser)
Processor: i686 or newer

14 Ubuntu MATE

Support for 32-bit systems: Yes

Ubuntu MATE is an impressive lightweight Linux distribution that runs reasonably fast on older computers. It has a MATE desktop – so the user interface may seem a little simple at first glance, but it can be used.

Minimum system requirements for Ubuntu MATE:

RAM: 1 GB
Processor: Pentium M 1.0 GHz
Disk space: 9 GB
Display Resolution: 1024 x 768

13 Zorin OS Lite

Support for 32-bit systems: Yes

Zorin OS is a Linux distribution based on Ubuntu. It offers a light version for older computers that has an Xfce desktop environment.

If you have a decent system (not too old), you can also try the regular Zorin OS.

Minimum system requirements for Zorin OS Lite:

RAM: 512 MB
Processor: 700 MHz Single Core
Disk space: 8 GB
Display: 640 × 480 resolution

1 Tiny Core

Probably technically the lightest distribution out there. However, this is not a complete Linux distribution.

Tiny Core simply includes the underlying OS kernel and root filesystem. In other words, it is the core of the desktop OS.

You shouldn’t expect proper hardware support out of the box.

So if you know how to configure and compile the programs required for Tiny Core Linux to make it a complete system to work with, then you can give it a try.

Minimum hardware requirements for Tiny Core Linux:

RAM: 64 MB (128 MB recommended)
Processor: i486DX

Output

Most Linux distributions should be easily installed on older computers without any problems. If you are a confident user, then there are many options on our list for you.

7 LXLE

Support for 32-bit systems: Yes

LXLE is actually the Lubuntu LTS version. Now that Lubuntu comes with LXQT by default, LXLE is a great option for users who want to use the LXDE desktop environment.

Despite being a lightweight Linux distribution, LXLE strives to provide an intuitive interface. The system is tuned for performance and comes with a wide range of lightweight applications installed by default.

Minimum hardware requirements for LXLE:

RAM: 512 MB (1 GB recommended)
Processor: Pentium 3 (Pentium 4 recommended)
Disk space: 8 GB

6 CrunchBang ++

32-bit support: Yes (older versions)

CrunchBang ++ is also known as CBPP or #! ++ or CrunchBang Plus Plus. Crunchbang ++ is a discontinued clone of Crunchbang Linux.

CrunchBang ++ supports and works on older computers without issue. CrunchBang ++ is based on Debian 10 with minimal interface design.

At the time of this writing, the default apps pre-installed in Crunchbang ++ were: Geany IDE, Terminator Terminal Emulator, Thunar File Manager, Image Editing Gimp, Viewnior Image Viewer, VLC Media Player for Music, Xfburn CD / DVD Burning Software etc.

This might not be the best option for the average user, but you can try and test it.

Minimum hardware requirements for CrunchBang ++:

RAM: 1 GB RAM
Processor: Pentium 4 or Pentium M or AMD K8

5 Bodhi Linux

32-bit support: Yes (older versions)

Another lightweight distro is Bodhi Linux, which gives life to old PCs and laptops. Bodhi Linux is quite famous for its minimum requirement and low cost hardware support.

It doesn’t come with a lot of preinstalled programs – hence, you will notice that the ISO file size will be less than 1GB.

The presence of the Moksh Desktop makes Bodhi Linux a worthy choice for older hardware configurations while providing good performance.

Minimum hardware requirements for Bodhi Linux:

RAM: 256 MB RAM
Processor: 1.0 GHz
Disk space: 5 GB

12 Xubuntu

Support for 32-bit systems: Yes

Xubuntu is one of the official Ubuntu versions with a lightweight Xfce desktop.

It is easy to use and can also be installed on older computers without any problems. Go to their official website to download the ISO (32-bit / 64-bit).

Minimum system requirements for Xubuntu:

RAM: 512 MB (1 GB recommended)
Processor: Pentium Pro or AMD Athlon

Types of operating systems

Before deciding which operating system is best for a laptop, you should consider the features of all operating systems for this type of technology. The most common three types of OS are:

MacOS;
FROM;
Windows from Microsoft;
Linux.

It is necessary to consider in more detail the pros and cons of these operating systems.

MacOS

Installing macOS on any laptop other than a MacBook will not work (we are not talking about a virtual OS). This system is only for apple machines.

MacBooks should be considered only as a whole with an operating system that is regularly updated by the manufacturer.

Linux

The system works even on the smallest notebooks. Distributed free of charge as open source distributors. As a result, the system has the ability to modify and change the OS. Linux Mint is provided in assemblies with three interfaces:

Xfce is a system for the weakest devices with less than 1 GB of RAM;
Mate is a classic interface for more powerful devices;
Cinnamon is a modern version of the interface that can only be installed if you have at least 2 GB of RAM.

The disadvantages of the system include some problems with the installation of specific devices, in which a driver for this operating system may not be written.

Few people know about the endless operating system on a laptop, what it is. It is a Linux based OS. Easily installed on most ASUS and ACER laptops sold in Russian stores.

Windows

By far the most popular operating system today is Microsoft’s Windows.

It is difficult to find a replacement for it, especially for people working with a number of specific applications that run exclusively under “windows”, as well as for gamers.

What “windows” to install?

For low-power laptops (up to 1 GB of RAM and a 1-core processor), the “good old” Windows XP is the best fit.

This OS has proven itself very well, all the “holes” and “bugs” in it are quite well “patched” and if the laptop is only required to provide Internet surfing, work in office applications, watching videos and simple photo processing, then Windows XP will prolong life even the oldest device.

After the disastrous Windows Vista, the 7 was a real breakthrough for Microsoft:
- Fast
- With a new attractive interface
- Works with various processor architectures

If your laptop has at least 2GB of RAM and a dual-core processor, then Windows 7 is the perfect choice.

The OS has two versions, 32 bit and 64 bit. Many applications are now available exclusively in 64-bit versions. However, to install Windows 7 64, you must have at least 6 GB of RAM.

Windows 10 – the latest in the Windows family, has many strengths and, perhaps, just as many disadvantages. These include constant unauthorized updates, sending reports to the manufacturer’s office and even spying on the user.

Nevertheless, it is better to install the top ten on a new, powerful laptop, since Microsoft provides its full support, which cannot be said about previous versions of the system.

FROM

This system was on most computers literally 10-15 years ago. The main advantage of this operating system is its close interaction with the hardware. This is also a disadvantage. The latest version appeared in 2003.

FreeDOS is a new, modern and MS-DOS compatible operating system.

Recommendations for choosing an OS for a laptop

The choice of operating system should be approached very carefully, because if you make the wrong choice, you will not be able to use all the capabilities of your device.

When choosing, you need to pay attention to:

RAM and laptop power;
the presence of drivers in the selected OS for the programs that you plan to use;
easy to install and use.

You can make the choice yourself or contact a specialist who, based on the power of the laptop, will advise on a specific operating system.

Which operating system to choose for a weak machine

If the machine is weak and does not have a large amount of RAM, then the choice of operating system should be approached especially carefully. Otherwise, problems will arise during work, the laptop will slow down, up to a complete freeze.

The most suitable operating system for an old laptop is Windows Xp. It requires minimum requirements. But it should be borne in mind that this Windows itself is also outdated.

For weak devices, the more modern Windows 7 is also suitable. This is the optimal solution even for very weak machines. They may well be equipped with this OS.

Features of the installation of various systems

All operating systems provide tips and detailed instructions during the installation process. This makes the installation process much easier. The OS can be loaded both from a USB flash drive and from a disk or other foreign media.

The Linux Mint installation can be downloaded from the official website.

When installing Linux, users who are accustomed to Windows may have difficulties, but it is enough to read the provided literature on installing the OS on the network and everything will be fine.

There are several types of operating systems. Many laptops are sold “clean” with no OS installed. In this case, you need to choose the most suitable option that will meet all your requests and match the capacity of the laptop.

Author, specialist in the field of IT and new technologies.

He graduated from the Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov. After that, he became an expert in a well-known online publication. After a while, I decided to try to write articles on my own. He runs a popular blog on YouTube and shares interesting information from the world of technology.

Additional tips when choosing a laptop operating system

If you make a mistake right away, you will not be able to use all the capabilities of not only the system itself, but also the device. You need to look closely at the following points:

Simple installation and further operation. Benefits that only the best operating systems have.
Drivers in the selected program that you plan to use.
The power of the laptop and the RAM it uses. It is necessary to put on computers what corresponds to the characteristics.

Important. You can make a choice yourself, but it is better to always seek advice from representatives of stores and service centers, more experienced users. For weak PCs, it’s better to make a different choice.

If the car is weak

You should be especially careful about the choice if the characteristics of the machine itself are rather weak. Otherwise, the laptop may not only slow down, but also freeze completely. Windows XP is the most suitable system for laptops, the specifications of which are rather low. But it should be borne in mind that this solution is also considered obsolete at the moment. Windows 7 is a more modern option, which is also suitable for almost any metric. Each user can decide for himself which operating system is best for a laptop.

Using macOS

The main advantages are stable operation and absence of viruses. Of course, the set of tools for work is more modest compared to regular versions of Microsoft Windows. But even this is easy to argue with – developers regularly release new projects, many of which are almost indistinguishable from their counterparts.

MacBooks are great options for performing different tasks at a professional level:

Working with graphics.
Sound.

For gamers, Windows is more suitable. Most modern projects just don’t support macOS. But which Windows to choose is up to everyone.

Chrome OS

An operating system developed by Google. Designed for very weak netbooks. The main functions are the use of services from Google and browsing the Internet. Differs in some features:

Building a base based on Linux. Better to install on branded devices.
Active supply of all services from Google.
Support for ARM processors and x86 variants.

Note. Basic system features work best, other features are minimal. This is a familiar work environment with a main screen and developer services.

If there is a corresponding hardware filling – Chrome OS is suitable even for very old netbooks. The main purpose is special devices called Chromebooks. On other versions of the technique, you can also try launching, but you need to be prepared for negative results. And to the fact that you have to decide again which Windows to install.

Summing up

Windows and macOS are best for home use. The former is better for gaming, while the latter features exclusive software and advanced ecosystem work. Nevertheless, when it comes to the speed of work, Linux is confidently knocking out the leader, which does not need hardware power. It doesn’t even need a powerful processor to run at its optimum level. Linux-based operating systems are often used in the corporate secretary – they are given to work with arrays of information and databases.

Less popular systems that were not included in the selection may also deserve attention. Syllable is a free alternative to home platforms. ReactOS was once a clone of Windows 95, but today it is a standalone full-fledged operating system.
