Linux get started Linux and Windows common comparison

The most used operating system is Windows and Linux, and the Microsoft Windows operating system occupies the majority of the consumer market, Windows is so favored by the vast number of users, it is necessary to learn the Linux operating system? Since Linux is not being squeezed out of windows, it is enough to show that Linux itself has a natural advantage that Windows cannot replace, citing the common differences in the following:

Windows	Linux
was born in November 1985, Microsoft company launched	October 5, 1991 , a Unix-like version developed by a Finnish university student ( Linus Torvalds )
Do not open source, fees (currently downloaded on the Internet is basically pirated)	Open source Free (source code disclosure)
Windows OS often patches system updates and the like, relatively insecure	Relatively secure (there are a lot of Linux enthusiasts around the world who are willing to contribute to maintaining open source Linux)
Desktop OS share is large, but server, mobile device OS, embedded low share	The system is stable, low cost, good cross-platform portability, high share in server, embedded domain, desktop area (Linux weakest domain, consistent by Windows suppressed) share gradually increased
Single-User (pre-XP) multitasking system	Multi-user multi-tasking system
For the vast number of consumers	For developers
Easy to operate and easy to use	Relative to ordinary users, there are higher requirements, when used on tall

The above is a summary of the differences between the two are far from being limited to the above (general understanding). Wait until later development time to do a detailed description. If there are deficiencies, we sincerely hope that you can put forward valuable suggestions, comments or private messages, thank you for your reading.
