Most Popular Operative Systems 1981 - 2025

Опис:

Welcome to Wolf Data, from 1981 to the mid-1990s, MS-DOS and later Windows became the most dominant operating systems in personal computing. Apple’s macOS (originally System Software, then Mac OS) offered a key alternative, particularly in design and education. The late 1990s saw Linux emerge as an open-source competitor, influential though smaller in market share. During the 2000s, Windows XP and Windows 7 solidified Microsoft’s global dominance. In the 2010s, Android rose to become the most popular OS overall due to smartphone expansion, surpassing desktop systems. iOS carved out a strong ecosystem in mobile devices, especially in premium markets. By the 2020s, Windows, Android, iOS, macOS, and Linux defined the global OS landscape across PCs, servers, and mobile devices.
