Description
Right now the download.php script on the main BOINC site uses browser detection to present a list of clients for Windows to visitors who appear to be coming from Windows, Mac for mac, Linux for Linux. It's also possible to see the whole list.
It should be easy also to override the browser detection and display the Windows list to a Linux browser, eg. with something like download.php?platform=Windows. This could be helpful for help desk volunteers talking people through a download even if they don't have the same platform.
