Regardless of the hardware, only the system, starting with at least 8G of memory, the CPU must also have 4 cores or more.
This article is suitable for programmers, petty bourgeoisie or people who like to toss. Of course, if you want to create a unique computer operating system environment for yourself, then you can read this article.
1. How about the Windows operating system? Choose the right one!
The popularity of personal computers in China began approximately in 1995. That is to say, it has been approximately 24 years and these 24 years since then. Windows has started from MS-DOS, Windows 95, Window 98, XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10. Go through many versions.
Don’t talk about the others, only Windows 10 (if you haven’t upgraded Windows 10, please upgrade it! It will double your work efficiency).
1. The advantages and disadvantages of each version
| Version | Functions | Recommendation Index | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windows10 Home Edition< /td> | Support most computers and tablets | Win10 core functions, device encryption (InstantGo), enterprise application sideloading (PC and mobile device interconnection), mobile device management, Microsoft account, regular version Windows Update | ☆ |
| Windows10 Professional Edition | win10 core features | domain , Group Policy Management, BitLocker, Enterprise Mode Internet Explorer (EMIE), Assigned Access 8.1, Remote Desktop, Azure Active Directory, Enterprise Store, Enterprise Data Protection, Business Edition Windows Update, CBB Current Branch Update | ☆☆☆☆ |
| Windows10 Enterprise Edition | Large and medium-sized enterprises are used to prevent devices, identities, applications, and sensitive corporate information Advanced features of modern security threats. | Domain, Group Policy Management, BitLocker, Enterprise Mode Internet Explorer (EMIE), Assigned Access 8.1, Remote Desktop, Azure Active Directory, Enterprise Store, Enterprise Data Protection, Business Edition Windows Update, CBB current branch Update, add Direct Access (direct access), Windows To Go Creator, AppLokcer, BranchCache, start screen group policy control, Granular UX, credential protection, device protection, LTSB long-term service branch update. | ☆☆☆☆ |
| Windows10 Education Edition | win10 basic functions, remove the useless stores such as The built-in software is equivalent to a pure operating system | Domain, Group Policy Management, BitLocker, Enterprise Mode Internet Explorer (EMIE), Assigned Access 8.1, Remote Desktop, Azure Active Directory, Enterprise Store, Enterprise Data protection, commercial version of Windows Update, CBB current branch update, add Direct Access (direct access), Windows To Go Creator, AppLokcer, BranchCache, start screen group policy control, Granular UX, credential protection, device protection | ☆☆☆ |
2. How to choose a suitable Windows operating system?
Now this is an era of rapid development, but most of us actually use the most of the above may be Windows10 Home Edition. This may be due to the fact that the free original operating system pre-installed when we bought the laptop was Windows10 Home Edition. Many people bought it and didn’t bother to use it directly.
Windows10 Home Edition is just suitable for ordinary office workers, and it is no problem to use it directly. But for us programmers or developers. Some functions of Windows10 Home Edition are not open. You need to install Windows10 Professional Edition or Windows10 Enterprise Edition. Use all open functions. Therefore, it is recommended to use Windows10 Enterprise Edition.
Summary: If you choose Windows, choose Windows10 Enterprise Edition or Windows10 Professional Edition. There are no restrictions on the use of functions, mainly relative For other operating systems (Mac, Linux), the amount of software that satisfies the function is huge, and almost any software that satisfies the function can be found. The only definite disadvantage is that it is not very beautiful, there are many advertisements and rogue plug-ins, need to install the corresponding tools to remove this problem, such as advertising terminator, 360 security guards (need to turn off the built-in advertising messages and other settings).

2. How about the Mac operating system?
Since the MacBook Pro came into our eyes in 2006, Apple’s computer has been well received by its perfect hardware appearance + gorgeous, user-friendly operating system. It is a business person. A popular product for program developers.
The biggest difference between Apple’s operating system and windows is that the underlying kernel is different. The former is Unix and the latter is NT. Mac is a graphical operating system based on the Unix kernel, and linux is a freely used and freely spread Unix-like system. However, the Apple computer system is bound to its hardware, but some people install the black apple system on an ordinary computer. The experience is basically the same as the original version, but it cannot give full play to its best performance.
I also installed a black apple on my Lenovo G470. I was tossed for 3 days, checked a lot of information, and found the driver modified by the great god before launching the installation successfully and adapting the graphics driver. But the best experience is not available. Not recommended for use. If you want to experience it, you can find it in a treasure.
I have used the genuine MAC system for about 3 years (I bought the pro top version for 13 years by bleeding out myself), and the experience for me is that it is user-friendly and easy to operate. Basic office software, development software, etc. are available, and they are being supplemented at a high speed. In the future, this computer will be frequently seen in Starbucks or some bookstores.
Summary: If you choose Mac, the developer recommends choosing MacBook Pro, the latest high configuration is enough, and the storage is at least 16G above. This system will make you feel flying. But the price is relatively expensive. The system has nothing to say, where is the comparison money spent. Recently, I heard that as long as the system upgrades to 13, Apple notebooks can use IPAD to achieve split screen. You can pay attention to it. System recommendation ☆☆☆☆
3. How to choose Linux operating system?
1. What is Linux?
Linux is a free-to-use and freely disseminated Unix-like operating system. It is a multi-user, multi-tasking, multi-threaded and multi-CPU operating system based on POSIX and UNIX.
It is suitable for programmers and their developers and other technical personnel, not suitable for business people. Compared with Windows and Mac, it is free, compatible and installable on all computers and exert its performance. The only thing is that there are more variants of this piece.

KDE Neon is based on the Ubuntu LTS long-term support version. | ☆ ☆ |
| Nitrux | You can customize your own application include KDE software set extremely simple and beautiful desktop |
Nitrux is built on the unstable development branch of Ubuntu, so Ubuntu has all the advantages of it. | ☆☆ |
< p>For Linux, I have used Mint, Manjaro, Deeplin, Ubuntu, Centos7These kinds of. Among them, the easiest to use in China is Deeplin, which has good support for Chinese software in the app store. The comparison is developed by the Chinese.
Next is Mint, a derivative version of Ubuntu, which has strong community support, is rich in information, and has its own optimization, which is quite good.
Manjaro is actually a rising star, used by foreigners. The development efficiency of this model is relatively high. Basically similar to Mint. After I used it for half a year, I couldn't get an update completely. A repair was performed. U disk mounting system update is not possible. give up. Maybe it's still unstable.
Summary:For friends who want to use Linux development. Novices recommend Deeplin, less toss. In terms of experience. It is recommended to use Mint, which is more convenient and has good compatibility. You don’t need to worry about it. Friends who want to try out can try Manjaro. It’s really good. A script and development tool software environment are all done. Masters should use Arch Linux, the most invincible system.
