Operating System Overview
Scenario:
You work for a small startup company as an IT consultant. Your job is to analyze the Mac OS, Linux OS, and Windows OS to determine which is best for the organization.
Instructions:
In a 3-5 page proposal to your client, complete the following tasks:
· Identify a real or mock small business startup company and describe the company, its industry, core competencies, and the management team.
· Compare and contrast the Mac, Linux, and Windows operating systems. Compare the speed, ease for installation, ease of use, and security of the operating systems.
· Identify business requirements including the company's expectations for the operating system and their primary goals. (Speed? Stability? Security?)
· Recommend an operating system for your client to use moving forward. Provide justification for your recommendation. In this assignment you may assume that cost is not a factor in making the recommendation: look at the merits of each OS as they relate to the course.
· Your proposal should be written in a clear, concise, and organized manner, and should demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources (i.e. APA); and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
