A question on computer history…
A mate told me that when computers started out, they had no operating system… that everything (or the 1 incredibly simple thing) they were used for was operated in the same state that a PC is before you install the OS.
This seems to make sense I thought, because surely to design and program a new OS, you need to do so from within another OS.
So I was perfectly happy with that, until I thought, how the hell did the first OS come about then? If it needed one before it to be created on, so I went back to thinking that they’ve always had an OS.
So I confused myself, like I did with the "chicken and the egg" theory, which by the way, the answer to is the chicken, which was basically deformed by way of evolution, and then had deformed chicklets.
Anywho, the OS thing…?
