There are very few similarities beyond some convergent features of their respective user interfaces. Their internal architecture is very different, differing from kernel models to shell integration to executable formats. A comprehensive list of similarities is neither possible nor useful, because it would consist mostly of obvious statements like "They are both operating systems" or "They both have graphical user interfaces, "They both include Web Browsers" and the like.
Linux and Unix have many similarities, but Linux has many features that most Unices do not have, and some current Unix implementations (like Solaris) have some features that have yet to be implemented in Linux (like dtrace).
Some ways that Unix and Linux are functionally similar:

There are very few similarities between Windows 98 and Windows NT, other than a similar interface.
From what I can gather, Windows 7 improves on the security holes that were left in Vista as well as adding new graphics etc
Here are few similarities: Both are PC operating systems. Both work on x86 architecture hardware. Both are products from Microsoft Corporation. - Neeraj Sharma
The only similarity between Microsoft Windows (propriety) and Ubuntu (open-source) is that they are both operating systems. Apart from that, they are as different as chalk and cheese!
what is the similarities between the ulna and the radius
what are similarities and differences between linux and unix?
UNIX is a command-based OS. In contrast, Windows is a menu-based OS.
Since there isn't a UNIX 95 or UNIX 98 per se, I think you are referring to Windows 95 or Windows 98..
There are very few similarities between Windows 98 and Windows NT, other than a similar interface.
unix is a multiuser operating system but widows is a single user operating system.
Because Linux evolved from UNIX, but Windows evolved from DOS.
tHE QUESTION WAS WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETEEN unix and windows 7, but i did not get the appropriate answer.
A Unix shell can be obtained in Cygwin, a Unix compatibility layer used to compile Unix programs and run them on Windows. Microsoft also makes a shell known as "Windows PowerShell" which incorporates more Unix-like features than the standard command prompt.
ms windows is byfar less stable than unix
There are several ways. One is to have Samba configured on the Unix system so that the Windows system has access to it. Another way is to install the lpr service for windows (most Windows servers now have that service as an installable service). 'lpr' is the Unix printing spooler which would allow you to use the lpr command in windows to print to a Unix printer.
Difference: Back in the days before Microsoft Windows dominated the PC market, operating system were controlled by commands. Prior to MS-Windows, PC users were required to learn these commands in order to perform routine tasks. During the 1980s, Microsoft DOS dominated the PC market while the early UNIX command systems were used on larger multi-processing servers. The main difference between UNIX and DOS is that DOS was originally designed for single-user systems, while UNIX was designed for systems with many users. While PC's have evolved into GUI interfaces such as Windows, UNIX systems have never evolved into GUI environments. Hence, The Oracle professional must master a bewildering number of cryptic UNIX commands in order to manage their Oracle databases, both on Windows NT and UNIX. One of the most confounding issues for the UNIX neophyte is being confronted with a complex UNIX command. The cryptic nature of UNIX is such that even the most seasoned UNIX professional may have trouble deciphering the purpose of the command. Because UNIX and MS-DOS were developed at the same time they share some common syntax, and the UNIX neophyte will be happy to find many common commands and concepts.Similarities: Both has CLI option and both are quick.
They are both administrator accounts and have privileges to do anything on the system.
