Task 1 Operating System Suitability Assessment Plan
Develop a tool that helps companies in assessing the suitability of different operating systems for their businesses. This tool is a table with multiple rows and columns. Table 1 is a simple and incomplete example of this table. Your table should have at least five columns, as presented in Table 1. You can add more columns if you deem necessary. How customers will use this tool is up to you. For example, you can ask customers to tick one of the three candidate operating systems in each row. You can also ask customers to provide ratings (1-10) for each candidate operating system in each row.
