[LINUX_Newbies] Re: Do all LINUX have 3 layer system like Unix and Mac OS x

The bottom Layer (the "base" or the "root") is the kernel and has nothing to do with the middle layer or user layer .

Are you saying the top layer the user layer is the permissions and you saying is better in windows?

Windoes 2000,XP,vista and 7 is base on TN.

Windoes 9.x and befire 9.x was a single user system.

What do you mean? Can yo elaborate?

And why does windows not use the three layer system?
