OPERATING SYSTEM An operating system (OS)
is a collection of software that manages computer hardware resources and provides common services for computer programs.
The operating system is a vital component of the system software in a computer system. Application programs usually require an operating system to function.

WILL THE OS REQUIRE THE COMPANY TO PURCHASE NEW
COMPUTERS?
No. But a few components of the computer may not be compatible with Linux and need to be replaced. Purchasing new computers with Linux may also provide better tech support agreements than having the local tech install it on all of them.

IS LINUX OS EASIER TO USE? IF YES THEN WHY?
Linux has the ability to use a graphical user interface, complete with a cursor, icons, and menus. Some Linux distributions are styled to look almost exactly like Windows.
You are not required to know how to use the command line to use Linux. The command line, however, is the key to unlocking the power to any operating system, be it Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux.
So you would be well off learning to not be afraid of it.

CONT…. Linux has been time-proven to be a reliable
operating system. Although the desktop is not a new place for Linux, most Linux-based systems have been used as servers and embedded systems. High-visibility Web sites such as Google use Linux-based systems, but you also can find Linux inside the TiVo set-top box in many living rooms.
Linux has proved to be so reliable and secure that it is commonly found in dedicated firewall and router systems used by high-profile companies to secure their networks. For more than ten years, it has not been uncommon for Linux systems to run for months or years without needing a single reboot.

CAN THE LATEST VERSION OF MICROSOFT OFFICE RUN WITH THE LINUX OS?
o No.It is technically possible to adapt Microsoft Office to Linux, but Microsoft isn't keen on allowing Office users to choose their operating system. There are other issues with MS Office and openness ‚like Microsoft's fierce opposition to supporting the Open Document format.
