This was originally brought up in the mailing list:
http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/Website-autodetect-OS-td4680922.html

Quoting the original message:

> [On the website] there is a tabbed interface for the download links, with
each tab corresponding to a particular OS.
>
> However (for me at least) the default active tab is always GNU/Linux. It
should be easy to add some JS to set the default active tab to the user's OS.
See, e.g.,
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7044944/jquery-javascript-to-detect-os-without-a-plugin.
Figured this might help more users download Octave.
