Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the assessment on which is a between operating system between Linux OS and Windows OS in a computer laboratory environment. Also, a comparison between the cost, maintenance, security, and updates between those Operating system will be made. Also, the common types of application software being used on a computer laboratory will be also tackled. Availability of these kinds of application software between these Operating system will be undertaken last. Aside from that, the advantages and disadvantages of using this application software over the other will be the thing to study on this paper
