What about the MAC OS X system?

North Korea's IT applications are not well known, with media reports that North Korea's late leader, Kim Jong-il, has a penchant for Apple electronics, and a recent survey shows that Apple's MAC OS X system is the first in the market for PC operating systems in North Korea, ahead of Microsoft Windows.

According to the U.S. Science and technology news website Softpedia reported on May 5, Technology market research company StatCounter issued the report. April statistics show that North Koreans love Apple computers and MAC OS X systems, with a market share of up to 31.29%.

Such statistical results are surprising. Apple's computers and other electronic products are notoriously expensive, and North Korea's economy is underdeveloped and spending power is low. Media analysts say there is also the possibility that North Korean hackers have cracked Apple's MAC OS X operating system and are able to install it on PCs assembled by other companies.

The second-largest operating system in North Korea is not Microsoft Windows, but an open source, free-to-access Linux system. The market share of the system in April was 30.92%.

Linux is also a source of Android, and countries around the world can modify Linux systems tailored to the local market based on free Linux code. It is learnt that some North Korean agencies have been customized to modify the famous "Red Star Linux" localization system, widely used in North Korea.

North Korea's Red Star Linux system is very closed, anti-virus software and web browser can only connect North Korea's domestic servers, in addition North Korea has developed a variety of encryption technology to prevent overseas countries to use the North Korean operating system to steal secrets.

Microsoft's Windows system lagged behind Apple and Linux and ranked third, the report showed.

Around the world, Windows XP has retired from the historical stage, Microsoft also no longer provide technical support, but XP is the North Korean share of the highest version of Windows, April is 11.6%, followed by Windows 7 system, the share of 9.41%,windows 10 system ranked third , with a share of 6.64%,windows 8.1 and Windows 8 in North Korea there are also some users.

The accuracy of the market-sector survey is still a question mark, as North Korea's strict regulation of Internet access and PC use is not very transparent.

According to previous media reports, North Korea's late leader Kim Jong-il is fond of using Apple's electronic products, said President Barack Obama has sent Kim Jong-il apple notebooks and iPhone phones. Kim Jong Il's favorite computer was a 15-inch MacBook Pro laptop for Apple.

I don't know if the leaders are fond of Apple products. By the end of 2015, German security personnel found that North Korea's latest upgraded Red Star Linux 3.0 version, its user interface and Apple MAC OS X very similar.

Unlike the Windows operating system, which is licensed to computer vendors, Apple's MAC OS X system is a closed product that is only used on Apple PCs, and many applications must be specifically developed. Mr. Jobs was reportedly very fond of Sony Electronics, who had lobbied Sony executives to expect products such as Sony notebooks to be preloaded with MAC OS X systems, but the two sides had no results.
