:-) It's actually pretty old. I believe it originated as just "Windows",
in the early 90's by one of the stalwarts on the comp.os.cpm newsgroup!

To be fair, only Windows 3.1, 95, 98 and ME fit the bill - they are least
tried a rewrite with NT/200X/XP whatever one might think of the
engineering quality. Also it's poetic license about "originally coded for
a 4 bit micro", but the rest stand up well.
