Last modified: Thursday, July 14, 2005 

 
A family of operating systems for personal computers. Windows dominates the personal computer world, running, by some estimates, on 90% of all personal computers.

Like the Macintosh operating environment, Windows provides a graphical user interface (GUI), virtual memory management, multitasking, and support for many peripheral devices.
