Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 15 page paper comparing Windows Vista operating system and Linux. Judging from Microsoft's past performance it will take at least two years for the Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 to become as reliable and predictable as the company claims it is. For its part, Linux is more suitable for more technically-oriented users and administrators. For those who possess the technical knowledge, however, Linux is a much more economical choice and reduces total cost of ownership, both in purchase price and in costs of ownership over time. The OS that is "best" for a specific user depends, as always, on the user's needs in the present and anticipated future, as well as on the user's level of technical knowledge and ability. Includes a prospectus and abstract. Bibliography lists 11 sources in 26 footnotes.

2008; Vista server (Windows Server 2008) has been available for a much shorter time. As a result, there is little academic information about either; research will rest on reliable
data-based assessment of the products. What Question(s) Do You Seek To Examine And Explore The primary question will be which operating system is
"best" overall, for general use. How Does Your Paper Propose to or How Will Your Paper Contribute to the Scientific Literature or to Providing a Better Understanding of the Broad
Topics of "Political Science or International Relations?" Microsoft is the sole owner of Vista products, and purchase is costly. Linux is freely
available throughout the world; several publishers offer packages that are more convenient and require less technical knowledge for use. Developing nations may find Linux adequate for their needs, and
