[Coco] OS-9 on Raspberry Pi

[Brian Blake]

I disagree completely, Chris. Though it's hard to tell of your message had
any sarcasm or not. I've worked with a lot of people who were well aware of
the Windows version they were using. In fact, I'd say maybe less than two
percent of the customers I've had to deal with didn't know what Windows
version they were on. And I do go back to the DOS days.

That's not to say Windows users are anywhere near as aware of their systems
the way most Linux user are. But a large majority aren't totally clueless.
