It is the operating system developed at Apple Inc. macOS operating systems are the second most common operating system after Windows. They represent about 5% of the world's active computers.
This operating system is close to Linux because the macOS kernel is based on the Unix kernel, the predecessor of Linux.
This operating system is primarily oriented towards work. A large number of handy programs and applications for work and a small number of available games prove this point.
Advantages
- Fast performance and high optimization. Apple is not only a software developer, but also a creator of system units, monoblocks, and portable computers. The company's engineers strive for the best performance of the devices.
- Convenient streamlined application management, simple user interface.
- There are few malware (viruses) if you purchase apps only from official developers. The App Store will not release a malicious application, but having an anti-virus will not be out of place.
- Useful built-in programs. macOS already includes a full-featured office for work, including a word processor, spreadsheet and presentation editor, and an app for video, graphics, and audio.
- Excellent interaction between the devices of Apple products. The iPhone smartphone, iPad tablet, and Apple Watch are the best when they interact with iMac. For example, a user can start solving a task on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad) and continue to solve it with a program installed on the iMac. This includes synchronizing information between devices or moving documents in the same cloud storage iCloud.
Disadvantages
Apple devices are shipped to the store already assembled. Important components such as the processor or RAM may be soldered to the motherboard. In case of replacement of these components, there may be problems with their recognition in the system, because the hardware identifiers of the system components are programmed in the operating system.
- A small number of entertainment applications
To run a particular game may require an emulator or installation of Windows by a second system through a special application.
