Brian Curtin <curtin at acm.org> added the comment:

Note that this will also need the Workstation check that 6.0 has right above this, because both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are version 6.1.x.

Also of note is that sys.getwindowsversion (renamed as GetVersionEx here) has been expanded to make use of the OSVERSIONINFOEX structure in trunk and py3k, which will make things like getting the platform and service pack info cleaner.

I'll work on a patch.
