Funnily enough I was wondering that very thing myself today.<br>
There's (software-type) and (software-version), which on my Leopard system give "Darwin" and "9.8.0".<br>
If they give different on Snow Leopard ...<br>
But maybe there's a more elegant solution.<br>

What's the correct way to determine the OSX version at runtime?<br>
<br>
Specifically, how do I make the behavior change if it's 10.6 or later?<br>
