I wouldn't expect the business people to be familiar with OS2. But I would expect them to admit they have no clue what it is.

Andersen has been shut down, but their consultants seem to be doing okay.
Is it really reasonable to expect a business person to be familiar with the history of countless major software artifacts that are essentially defunct, and/or similarly many contemporary research projects that also produce possibly usable software artifacts?
