in thread Determine the Windows OS Running

I'm not sure but AFAIK $^O will be 'MSWin32' for all Windows OSes. So it doesn't help.

Config.pm should contain information about computer where Perl was built. In most cases for Win32 Perl it is some build server at ActiveState. So it doesn't help also.

    It appears you are correct...
    I got "MSWin32" as a value for both $^O and $Config{osname} running on NT, so my prior comment should be stricken/ignored in the context of this question.
    I should really test before I post unless I know for sure what I'm talking about...
