And for a brief window of time, they could install a MacOS -- until Steve Jobs came back and killed that program. It happened that only Micorosft and IBM had widely supported operating systems. MS had Windows and IBM had OS/2. For awhile, NPR member stations installed an automation system that was OS/2 based, thus there were a few thousand computers that had OS/2 on them. The trouble with vendors putting a Linux flavor on their computers is who is going to support them? I will. And who else?
