Unless the context has already been clearly established as Mac OS, I say "Mac OS 9/8.6/7.1/etc." Hmm. Come to think of it, even when the context is clearly Mac OS, I'm more likely to just say, "9" or (more likely for me), "8.6", rather than "OS 9" etc.
I have a CoCo in the basement. I should drag it out and hook it to the kitchen television for old time's sake, since that television will stop being a television receiver tomorrow. (Well, there's a non-zero chance of my obtaining another DTV converter, but it's going to spend at least a while being not-a-television regardless.)
