Puppy linux. Our dream OS: the best of Windows, OS X, Linux, Android and iOS. Which operating system is the best? It's a classic question, and one still capable of generating pages of highly polarised online debate. Few people take a middle view - more often they claim their preference rules supreme, and anything else is total rubbish. The reality, of course, is very different. We love Windows, but it's far from perfect. Realising this got us thinking. What if, instead of simply defending Windows against criticisms, we accepted that other operating systems perform better in some areas, identified these, and found ways to import those technologies into Windows 7? And so our Ultimate OS project began. Android and iOS Previous versions of Windows have been all about looking backwards, mostly because it's forever dragging around a vast library of legacy software. That meant we weren't so concerned with whether we could run some ancient DOS application; rather, we wanted to be able to run at least some new Android and iOS apps on our desktop.
