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.
Who invented the first Micorsoft operating system?
AnswerActually it was Gary Kildall who invented the first operating system... Patterson bought it for 5 bucks at a hackers computer store. All Patterson did was switch the A drive and the C drive and called it his own. IBM went to Kildall first but he wasn't home and his wife wouldn't sign the non-disclosure paper. Then Bill Gates called Patterson and gave him 50,000 for the operating system and all the rights to it. Kildall was killed in a bar fight in 1994 after becoming an alcoholic because he watched his life's work being taken from him. Tim Patterson and Microsoft didn't actually do anything.
