| Computer Without a Operating System | Started by: JohnHerbert on Feb 28, '10 00:13 |

I was told awhile ago it is possible to have a computer you use, for Internet, word documents and such without having a operating system but you have like a ram storage system or something. I want to know your thoughts on this and any more info you have...or am I completely crazy? |

This is a very odd topic..However, I must go with the latter("or am I completely crazy?") because an Operating System is exactly what it sounds like...It's what makes the computer work. I am sure there is a way you could make your own OS that is so slim it seems as if there isn't one? I dunno. I've never heard of not using one. |

You are talking about a Live CD, I believe. It is still an operating system, it's just kinda like a trial version..sorta. I happen to have one for my xubuntu and it has helped me out many times. Namely when my father took my computer and I used the live cd to get passed his xp password. If that is what you are talking about, then it exists. However, I shall assume that all live cd OS's are quite lacking. For on mine, I can't install plugins and updates on the disk, and if I did, it wouldn't make any changes to my computer. If that is not what you are talking about, I would assume you are crazy. ;) |
