Find Operating System Information from your VB.NET 2005 application

In VS 2005, it has become really easy to find the Operating System's information using some of the classes. Let's take a look at how do we do it in VB 2005...

    Sub DisplayOperatingSystemInformation()
Dim osInfo As OperatingSystem
osInfo = Environment.OSVersion
Dim verInfo As Version
verInfo = osInfo.Version
'Display Version Information
MessageBox.Show( _
"Major Version = " & verInfo.Major & vbCrLf & _
"Minor Version = " & verInfo.Minor & vbCrLf & _
"Revision = " & verInfo.Revision & vbCrLf & _
"Build = " & verInfo.Build & vbCrLf & _
"Platform = " & osInfo.Platform & vbCrLf & _
"Platform String = " & osInfo.VersionString, _
"Operating System Information", MessageBoxButtons.OK, _
MessageBoxIcon.Information)
End Sub

Here is the output of this Method...

    Any idea how to make it determine which edition of Windows Vista is running? (ie: Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Ultimate)

    Hi That Guy :) I believe the code Nilesh provided should work. I haven't tried it though since I don't have any other OS to test on!

    Hi mr.Nilesh,  iam getting error when using your program, "Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'System.management' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases." maybe a minor mistake in my installation?
