Computers do not require an operating system.

An operating system allows for a lot of benefits, namely you can have multiple tasks run on the same computer. But there is no absolute need for an operating system, most early computers in fact ran without them, each person wanting to use one was allocated a time slot when their program could run, back when programs were programmed with punchcards.
