What hardware architectures does Fedora support?
x86, x86-64, and PowerPC.
What is dynix ptx?
A Unix-based operating system from Sequent Computer that ran on its Symmetry series of x86 symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) servers. IBM acquired Sequent in 1999.
Name five current operating systems and the computers or configurations each operates?
Well, there is Linux, but nobody pays attention to Linux, Windows 7, operates on most computers like dells, Hp, and other systems, iOS 4 for apple computers, the operating system isn't that reliable, the desktops are alright to use for macs, but the laptops aren't that good. 3/5 isn't that bad
What two major types called IBM-style PC's does microcomputers fall into?
This is a bit of a confusing question. IBM-Compatible computers are a type of microcomputer themselves. Any x86 based processor, such as AMD, Intel, VIA, and Cyrix, are IBM-Compatible. Other systems also exist, such as older Macs which used IBM PowerPC processors and Motorola processors. There also exists Sun Systems SPARC processors, and a whole host of others. IBM-Compatibles are the current dominant consumer system.
What is the primary boot loader for x86 -based system?
bootsect.dos
Will android operating system run on normal PC?
Sort of. "Normal PCs" run IBM-Compatible (i.e. x86 machine code), while Android runs on a ARM (i.e. RISC machine code). You can not run RISC on x86 natively, as they are not compatible with each other. However, there is an "Android Simulator" that is used primarily by developers that will allow you to simulate Android within Windows or Linux.
What does ACPI x86-based PC stand for?
ACPI or Advanced Configuration and Power Interface, is a specification that defines recognition for hardware, motherboards and other devices. It replaces the older AMP standard. x86 is just referring to the processor. Its all based of x86 technology back from the IBM 8086 Cpu's. that's why for a while CPU's kept getting designated 286, 386, 486 etc. cause it was all based of the x86 technology

What chip maker has designed athlon a Intel b freescale c amd d IBM?
AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) designed the Athlon x86 microprocessor.
Is x86 operating system equal to 32 bits?
They are both the same
Will x64 operating systems work on a computer running x86?
x86 and x86-64 (x64) are not mutually exclusive. x86-64 is a superset of x86, with 64-bit instructions. Many people still run 32-bit (x86) applications and operating systems on 64-bit processors. The reverse is not possible, though; you can't run a 64-bit system on a processor that only supports 32-bit.
Which computer was windows designed to run on?
Windows was not designed to run on any particular computer, but rather any computer compatible with the original IBM PC. After IBM stopped making personal computers, Windows was designed to run on any computer with an x86 compatible processor and BIOS.
