Type: String
Returns information about the user's installed operating system. For example "Win95", "Win98", "WinME", "WinNT", "WinXP", "Win2000", "Windows Server 2003", "Windows Vista", "Windows Server 2008", "UNIX", MacPPC, and MacOSX.
Note: This property is deprecated. We recommend using the OSDetails, or OSName and OSVersion properties instead. If you are switching from the Platform property to the OSDetails property, note the differences between the returned values. For instance Platform returns values such as "WinXP" and "MacOSX", whereas OSDetails returns values such as "Windows XP" and "OS X Lion". Therefore you may need to update your code accordingly if checking the returned values for specific strings. See Detecting Operating System Details for more information.
