and graphical user interfaces produced by Microsoft.
Microsoft first introduced an operating environment named
Windows in November 1985 as an add-on to MS-DOS in

(GUIs).
Microsoft Windows came to dominate the world's personal
computer market, overtaking Mac OS, which had been
introduced previously.
As of October 2009, Windows had approximately 91% of
the market share of the client operating systems for usage
on the Internet.
The most recent client version of Windows is Windows 7.

Open source OS Vs Closed source OS
Open Source OS
Closed Source OS
- True-open-source development
requires that a community of software
engineers band together to work on
the software.
-The idea is that more minds create
better software.
- Owned by someone (or some
organization) and distributed through a
variety of retail channels including the
owner's website.
- If the program is in the form of
shareware, a fully functional version of
the program can be installed and run.
- There may be a limited period of time
after which the software will disable
itself
Include source code for those
interested in peering into how the
program does what it does and
possibly contributing to the
development effort.
The source code is not usually
included. The buyer pays for the right
to use the program but does not own it
