MS WINDOWS OR MICROSOFT WINDOWS:Microsoft window is the computer operating system. The operating system
function as our computer brains; it tells us about our computer what to do and
how to do it. An operating system is required by every computer in order to
enable it to perform basic function such as receiving input from the keyboard
and mouse, sending output tothe monitor, accessing files and programs and
controlling data storage devices and peripherals devices or input output
devices (I/O devices). Windows operating system acts as the interface between
you and your computer. You tell your computer what to do by means of a
graphical user interface (GUI) that helps you work in an intuitive, visual way,
such as choosing commands by clicking graphic representations. The windows
operating system provides an easy way for you to work with your computer
without knowing anything about its inner working.The operating system interacts
with software programs installed on your computer and enables your computer to
communicate with other computers and peripherals devices such as printers,
scanners and modems. Windows includes several basic programs such ascalculator,
outlook express, paint, WordPad, Microsoft word, Microsoft excel, Microsoft
publisher, Microsoft PowerPoint and a variety of games. Programs such as these
are not part of the operating system and are not essential to the operation of
your computer; instead, they build on the basic operating system functionally
so you can perform more complex operations. We can purchase or download from
the internet other programs such as Microsoft office word, Microsoft office
PowerPoint, Microsoft office publisher, Microsoft office picture manager,
Microsoft office outlook and Microsoft office excel, Microsoft office access,
Microsoft office clip organizer, Microsoft office InfoPath designer, Microsoft
