What are the disadvantages of an operating system?
One Disadvantage For an operating System Is that Your hardware will not be able to work at all until you wrote your own code for the hardware to do what you want it to do .
What are the advantages of an operating system?
AnswerIt allows you to use your computer without any knowledge of coding. Without an operating system, your hardware would not work at all, until you wrote your own code for the hardware to do what you want.

What does the average inventor make by licensing a product to a company?
It all depends on the product and how much in sales revenue it makes. It also depends on how the contract is written with the company and if it is a straight purchase or a percentage of sales. Bill Gates of Microsoft fame wrote the windows operating system for IBM and he did not sell the rights to it. He leased it to them with a percentage of the profit for EACH computer that it was installed on. That is how he became rich.
Can a computer run without an operating system if it has a good application?
Yes, the earliest computers built did not have operating systems (the idea of an operating system had not been thought of) so individual programs were loaded and run one at a time. The first computer I used (in 1973) had no operating system, programs punched on decks of cards were loaded and run one at a time. The first microcomputers sold did not have enough memory to load an operating system. When Bill Gates wrote the original version of Microsoft BASIC for the MITS Altair 8800 the standard 8800 came with only 256 bytes of RAM and Microsoft BASIC could not run with less than 4096 bytes of RAM (it was already very expensive to expand the RAM to that size), so Microsoft BASIC was written to run without an operating system. There are also embedded system computers that are dedicated to one purpose and usually run one preloaded program supplied by the manufacturer and do not allow other programs to be loaded. While some embedded system computers do use an operating system, it is also common for the preloaded program to be written to directly control all the hardware directly without the need for an operating system.
Is bundling software application with an operating system fair or is it monopolistic practice?
As long as it is possible to remove the bundled software, it is fair to bundle soft applications with an operating system since equivalent software is available for free on the Internet. Of course, the people who wrote the version for the Internet want a donation for their time. Still, you can try it first and see if you like it. If you like it better than the bundled software, you should send them a donation.

Why did Microsoft invent MSDOS?
MS-DOS was based upon 86-DOS by Seatle Computer Works. When IBM developed their first PC, they approach Microsoft to write the operating system; at that time, Microsoft wrote computer applications and, in particular, languages - MSBASIC was the industry standard - and didn't have an operating system. Bill Gates realised the opportunity and bought the rights to 86-DOS which was renamed MS-DOS to supply for the IBM-PC.
