Note: This has been superseded by WinVer.nsh, which is included with NSIS 2.21 and greater. WinVer allows for easy detection of the Windows version using LogicLib macros and has automatic future-support so you can always tell if the system at hand, even if undetected, is newer or older than what you need.
