What information do you need?  A lot of the information provided by
SystemInformation seems very Windows-specific and wouldn't mean anything
on a non-Windows system.

You can get current user and some other information from Environment.
Also Environment.MachineName will return the machine name.  And
System.Net provides the Dns class as well.

WindowsIdentity may work as well, like -
System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name
