Thanks.
It's odd that I can't find this neither in Microsofot's class reference
list, nor in Monodoc. But that's okay, I just googled it.
Now, I just tried this on a Linux 2.6.0 kernel and the result was:
Unix 2.6.0.0
It looks like Mono doesn't distinguish between Linux and Unix. Is that a
bug? Or is it in purpose?
I was hoping for more granularity. I was hoping I'd be able to tell
appart Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and Solaris.

Thanks. I'll try it out.
Cheers,
