If you love keeping up with the latest developments in personal computing, you are likely aware that mini netbooks, once the top choice, have been surpassed and replaced by tablet PCs. These compact and portable devices are revolutionizing the digital world. If you’re planning to purchase one, it’s helpful to know which tablet computer stands out, particularly in terms of the operating system (OS) it uses.

When considering any computer, what sets it apart is how well it suits its operating system. No matter how great the device itself is, it won’t function properly or optimally without the best OS, as it serves as the computer’s engine. While we often focus on computer manufacturers first and rarely consider the operating system, having the best OS provides superior performance for any digital device we have in hand.

When searching for the best tablet computer, it’s important to consider the different OS options. Apple has been a pioneer in the digital entertainment market. The iPad, which has been available for some time now and sold in millions of units, uses Apple’s iOS, which has proven to be a highly reliable platform. Users of all ages and technical backgrounds can easily navigate the touchscreen-based iOS with minimal effort.

Google is another prominent name in the tablet computer OS arena. Their Android operating system is widely used on smartphones and netbooks. Many computer manufacturers choose to install Android on their devices because it is an open-source OS. This allows users to customize their devices, unlike iOS, and it is expected to gain even more popularity in the coming years. Android also supports Flash and PDFs, making it more advantageous in terms of compatibility with future formats. This advantage gives it an edge over iOS for tablet computers.

When discussing computer operating systems, Microsoft is always a key player. Microsoft XP was the initial OS used in netbooks upon their introduction. Today, Windows 7 is available in a version specifically tailored to work well with smaller computers. Microsoft is expected to maintain a significant share of the OS market.

There are still other operating systems that haven’t been mentioned above but have been discovered and chosen for tablet PCs. This is an area of continuous research and development. For example, Nokia is soon to release its own platform, which they hope will capture a significant share of the market. Nokia is currently collaborating with Intel to develop a new OS, which they may name MeeGo.
