Editor's Notes

  1. Teaching tip Www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp provides a neutral look at OS statistics. Refer to this page as you lecture. Visit www.wordiq.com/definition/Microsoft_Windows for an excellent timeline and description of Windows operating systems.
  2. Teaching tip Students often fail to see the value in older OS or applications. As an example, a metal fabrication plant in Pittsburgh PA is still using a program written in the early 70’s that calculates metal temperatures .
  3. Discussion point There are many computer professionals that say that Windows 2000 was the first stable Microsoft product. Engage your class in a discussion regarding a software developer’s obligation to create stable products.
  4. Teaching tip At press time, the 64 bit version of XP was still in the late beta stage. More information can be found at www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2003/sep03/09-23athlon64betapr.asp .
  5. Teaching tip OS X versions change often. Keep track of the most current and present this to the class. Visit www.apple.com/macosx/ to keep up to date. At press time the latest version was 10.4 Tiger.
  6. Teaching tip Tell your students what NOS your school uses.
  7. Teaching tip Spend some time describing how distributed applications can reduce network needs.
  8. Insider information The email service hotmail was originally hosted on Linux servers. Microsoft purchased Hotmail and moved it to Windows servers. It took Microsoft nearly a year to make Hotmail work as well on Windows as it did on Linux.
  9. Teaching tip Have a little fun with this one. Windows CE has the unfortunate and unofficial shortcut name of WinCE.
