I would lump this under "Extensive experience with older hardware,
software, and non-Windows/Linux/UNIX operating systems.  More details
provided upon request."

"Experience with Microsoft Windows and Office, multiple distributions of
Linux, and most commercial UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems."

There's no need to list specific versions, unless you're trying to get
through a HR drone's "Windows 95/98/XP/2K/2K3/2K8/Vista/7 and Office
2K/2K3/2K7/2K10" keyword filter.
