[DUG] Help Detecting Windows Version

[Alan Rose]

Thanks Jolyon. Funny enough I had seen that first one and just figured
out Im only missing the product type to tell the different between
windows 7 and win server 2008.
Once I get that working I'll tackle the 64 bit stuff. Thanks for the
links. Cheers
