Which one of the following is not a multitasking operating system?
(A) DOS
(B) Windows
(C) Unix
(D) Linux
A multitasking operating system lets you run several programs at once. DOS is different—it’s a single-tasking system, so you can only run one program at a time. Windows, Unix, and Linux do multitasking, handling multiple processes side by side. So, if you’re looking for the single-tasking option, it’s DOS.
