If you're seeing version numbers, you've gone too far. Remember to follow the instructions exactly as written in the article; don't open the Properties window. The entry listed under "Computer" is the only piece of information you need. It might be "Standard PC" or "ACPI Uniprocessor PC" or one of several other varieties.
