Short answer: Not always.
Different programs and aplications are designed for different tasks. Now, is X software available for Y operating system? That is another topic.
Computing Tasks:
- Gaming, Office and Accounting Tasks, Development, Digital Marketing, Design, Audio/Video Edition, etc... are all CROSSPLATFORM (meaning it can be done in any OS). Desktop OSs, today, are more compatible with those kind of tasks, but many of them can be performed in mobile OSs too.
The question is more related to Hardware than Software/OS.
For example, if you're a Hardcore Gamer, you'll need a very "strong" machine with a very good graphic card (it doesn't matter if you'll have the latest versión of MS Windows/OSX/Ubuntu or any other GNU/Linux distro).
Hardware requirements change if you only want to use your device to check your email, video streaming sites and social networks.
The original motivation for the development of distributed computing operating systems was for high reliability computing where no downtime (even for maintenance and repair) could be tolerated. These high reliability computing systems were of necessity composed of many redundant pieces of computing hardware modules (e.g. CPUs, memories, I/Os, hard disks) that a technician could unexpectedly remove at any time. These systems thus needed an operating system that would distribute itself and the applications redundantly too over the redundant hardware and recover from the unexpected removal of that hardware without the loss of any work making use of the removed hardware or a system crash. When the technician either replaced the removed module with a new one or expands the system with several new hardware modules the operating system must automatically distribute itself and the applications across the new redundant hardware without human interaction and without any system crashes.
An operating system is always needed in a computer. It is like a surface where you can install your softwares. Without it, computer hardwares like the hard disk or Random access memory etc can not load the softwares itself. All the operating systems work like each others. There are no major differences in these.
AMD has the cool and quiet function, reduces noise,heat and power consumption when its not needed then ups them when needed.
A memory resident, which means it remains inmemory while the computer is running, other parts of the operating system are nonresident, meaning these instructions remain on a storage medium until they are needed.
The purpose of a computer network is to allow users to share resources located on other computers, to share hardware devices such as printers and fax machines, to allow applications running on different computers to exchange data and to allow users to communicate electronically. A network operating system (NOS) is a special kind of operating system designed to provide networking functionality. A network operating system should support client-server networking, and include all of the programs needed to manage network resources and create a secure network environment. The most widely used network operating systems today include Microsoft Windows Server, Novell Netware, UNIX and Linux. Most network operating systems.
Yes, ActiveX is needed for many different parts of Windows operating systems and software on it.
Cloud-computing technologies can offer significant advantages over traditional systems. With resources provisioned on-demand and as-needed, enterprises can benefit from the collaborative, flexible, and cost-effective nature of cloud systems.
Economic systems are needed to help control the power in the people and the government. Thus for different countries with different powers relates to the different types of economic systems.
The software needed to run a computer is known as the Operating System. Many hardware platforms allow you to choose between multiple operating systems to suit your needs.

For best results: two separate hard drives, if not, two separate partitions. Two separate operating systems and a bootloader capable of loading multiple operating systems are requirements.
No. While some compilers may exist for multiple operating systems, but a specific version is needed for each one.
You would need to become a software engineer I would think and if you wanted to work on operating systems, there are few choices between Microsoft, Apple and IBM systems. these are the companies that develop operating systems. Other companies develop applications for people to use which are not the same thing as operating systems. In that case you would need to be a programmer if you want to develop applications.
No there isn't. You can still access the Command Line through the various Windows operating systems, if there is anything needed to be done that way.
Knowledge in the following disciplines is needed for an understanding of information systems: software engineering, systems engineering, cybersecurity, network engineering, enterprise and web computing, information management, and human-computer interaction.
