- Open the System Folder on her startup disk. Inside that open
- a folder called "Extensions." There should be a file there
- called "System 7 Tuner." If there is, select it then hit
- clover-I (official docs call it the "Command" key but it
- looks like a 4-leaf clover to me) for a get info box. Just
- above the comments box will be a version number line.
