The best way is not to check for a specific OS, since code which checks
for specific operating systems is inherently non-portable.
Instead, it is better to check for the presence of the specific feature(s)
that your code needs to worry about (e.g. for path name syntax
use System.IO.Path.DirectorySeparatorChar, etc.)
