[Environment.OSVersion][1]

Brilliant! This is just what I need as well. Thanks aku.

edg: Environment.OSVersion contains a version string but this doesn't generally give enough information to differentiate editions (also applies to XP Home/XP Pro). Also, there's the risk that this string will be localised so matching on it woudn't necessarily work.
