      System.OperatingSystem osInfo =System.Environment.OSVersion; I believe there's a name property, but also, you should be able to find out what the major and minor versions for both those OSes are ( although I confess that googling didn't get me those numbers in a hurry, but older samples that only go to vista )

      Christian Graus Please read this if you don't understand the answer I've given you "also I don't think "TranslateOneToTwoBillion OneHundredAndFortySevenMillion FourHundredAndEightyThreeThousand SixHundredAndFortySeven()" is a very good choice for a function name" - SpacixOne ( offering help to someone who really needed it ) ( spaces added for the benefit of people running at < 1280x1024 )
