Hello everyone!

Maybe this thread isn't fitting for the hardware forum, if so i apologize.

I've been wondering for som while now how software like a game or a office-suite is distributed. Because if i compile something on my Intel dualcore and the move it to a AMD (something) computer chances are my compiled software won't work since the hardware is different. Am I right?

So is software distributed with a compiler or does the installation program use the compiler that comes with the os?

I hope my question is understandable, if not please comment and I will try to clarify.

I also want to know...
