nude
     
        Said of machines delivered without an operating system
        (compare {bare metal}).  "We ordered 50 systems, but they all
        arrived nude, so we had to spend a an extra weekend with the
        installation tapes."  This usage is a recent innovation
        reflecting the fact that most PC clones are now delivered with
        DOS or Microsoft Windows pre-installed at the factory.  Other
        kinds of hardware are still normally delivered without OS, so
        this term is particular to PC support groups.
