A text based OS is an OS which doesn't have desktop just text. to let the OS do something, you need to type the command. Only certain applications for this OS use another view then text. A text based OS is for example MS DOS or your computers BIOS. A graphic based OS has a desktop and isn't just text on your screen. Windows 3.1 was the first graphic based OS. More recent graphic based OS are: Windows xp/vista/7
