I also beg to ask the question when you constantly rubbish people on there trades for there choice of using Microsoft , say Bill Gates (who has not been part of Microsoft for over 10 years or more) is this and that , why are you using what you say is a terrible operating system , weird taken from your feedback "I would STRONGLY ADVISE TO LOOK AT OUR REPLY WE have given this of course Hotmail Trader whom should wonder anymore i guess you can tell everything that dont work is made by microsoft" i chose not to share some ruder ones you used docpc - 2021-07-23 13:08:00 |
| 55 | Windows operating system can often have faults. Sometimes there can be a better option. No supercomputers use Windows, and most of the internet servers do either. That has to tell you something. tygertung - 2021-07-23 14:46:00 |

All operating systems have faults, but the default answer shouldn't be "Try Linux" whenever a user has ANY fault or issue with Windows. This is often the answer seen around here. And yes, what It tells me is that home users don't have super computers. Edited by cube_guy at 5:03 pm, Fri 23 Jul cube_guy - 2021-07-23 16:59:00 |

I don't know what is more sad, your constant plugging of an OS that most people don't care about, or subtlely plugging it and then denying that that is what you are doing.

It tells me that whilst those particular computing requirements are not satisfied by use of the Windows operating system this does not mean Windows is an unsuitable Operating System for most users requirements. From a quick internet search: "While many estimates suggest there are more than 1 billion Windows-powered PCs in use in the world, Microsoft officially claims there are 400 million active users of Windows 10 itself. That makes Windows 10, without the many versions of Windows before it, four times more popular than the Mac"......... nice_lady - 2021-07-23 22:57:00 |

That's nice. So what ? There are many products which are used in specific applications/situations but aren't used for much else.

If I was to guess why I would say that linux, being open source, is much more suited to being used on a supercomputer because it is customisable. Windows being proprietary probably doesn't offer the same flexibility... But the fact that windows isn't running on a super computer says absolutely nothing about the suitability of Windows or the *other OS* (stated with no agenda and not the slightest bit whiny at all) , for any other purpose. It beggars belief that I need to mention this, i'm pretty sure the average person would see that king1 - 2021-07-24 10:04:00 |

Yep, I've been dual booting since about 2007. Works good. I use Linux most of the time, but sometimes I will use Windows for a certain application. Windows is better for some things, but it is worse for others. Windows doesn't have the range of free software which is available on Linux. there is some specialist software which there isn't a Linux native version. Dual boot, get the best of both worlds. tygertung - 2021-07-24 12:54:00 |

Hi Ronaldo8, Thank you for your question. I have done a bit of research and found the definition of a "Supercomputer" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercomputer "A supercomputer is a computer with a high level of performance as compared to a general-purpose computer. The performance of a supercomputer is commonly measured in floating-point operations per second (FLOPS) instead of million instructions per second (MIPS). Since 2017, there are supercomputers which can perform over 1017 FLOPS (a hundred quadrillion FLOPS, 100 petaFLOPS or 100 PFLOPS).[3] Since November 2017, all of the world's fastest 500 supercomputers run Linux-based operating systems." tygertung - 2021-07-24 17:21:00 |

Hi nice_lady, Thank you for your comment.

I'm well aware android is linux based. I made my statement in relation to your posts about phones and tablets and Windows. Windows phones are defunct. Some tablets do run Windows, none run Linux as such. They run an Os based on Linux and other software......... Maybe you should take up bible bashing or similar - y'know door to door - it might be good for you to get out and about and you'd probably be very enthusiastic as you certainly have an evangelical bone or two in your body.

O dear straight to Wikipedia without actually knowing what you are talking about yourself or bothering with anything more than a superficial skim. The article you quote references only a subset of supercomputer systems, those that are compiled by top500. It doesn't include for instance large widows server clusters or any IBM power systems running AIX or IBMi for instance. Machines that, according to your opening definition "A supercomputer is a computer with a high level of performance as compared to a general-purpose computer." Are definitely supercomputers, many of which incidentally run multiple windows environments inside a VM shell. But of course that's the kind of subtlety and complexity that is beyond some puerile reductionist claptrap welding dumbo. ronaldo8 - 2021-07-24 19:26:00 |
| 93 | Thank you for your name-calling. Now really running VMs on top of another operating system doesn't count as the base machine. But believe what you want. tygertung - 2021-07-24 20:18:00 |
| 94 | Was I talking about you specifically? Neither AIX or IBMi are linux, nor is FreeBSD, nor was IRIX or Solaris to name a couple more. I.E. your claim is not only meaningless, it's bollocks. Edited by ronaldo8 at 11:34 pm, Sat 24 Jul ronaldo8 - 2021-07-24 23:22:00 |

| 99 | The most "unstable" OS I have used at time of launch was Windows Vista, with Windows 98 being second. My computing experiences probably don't go as far back as some here, but personally I never had issue with stability with Windows 8, it always ran fine for me - it was just awful to use. cube_guy - 2021-08-04 09:01:00 |
