A Description of the different PC and Macintosh Operating Systems

A description of the different PC and Macintosh Operating System

Mac computers run on the operating system OS X. You can run Windows or Linux on a Mac, but OS X is the default operating system of Mac computers. Legally, OS X is only supposed to be used on Mac computers. Apple has gone to great lengths to make sure of this. Macs OS X uses distinct programs and applications. For example, DMG is an extension used by Mac computers. A BMW is factory tuned to be a performance car, and BMW wheels will only work with a BMW.

PCs are best known for running on the operating system Windows. However, Windows has nothing to do with a PC being a PC. Many people prefer the open source operating system Linux. You cannot legally install OS X on a PC. PC operating systems, such as Windows, use distinct programs and applications. For example, EXE is an extension used by Windows based PCs. When restoring a Chevy Camaro, you can choose whether or not you want blue or black gauges in it.
