Request.Browser.Platform can determine what? UNIX or Linux?

[clintonG]

Does the documented property value UNIX [1] mean the
Request.Browser.Platform property determines requests are being made from a
Linux machine?

I think UNIX generalizes among the various *nix family -- Irix, AIX, SCO,
Linux, etc.

You might have better lack parsing the string in this property:
Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]

I still don't have a Linux distro installed on my itsy bitsy teeny weeny LAN
but this is sure a good reason to do so.
