It's really none of your business what OS I'm running :-v

You may be able to make an educated guess from the HTTP headers in $_SERVER.

var_dump($_SERVER);
and see what you get.

But you can't RELY on them, as some users will intentionally mask/alter that.

If your website depends on the visitor's OS for anything other than trivial behaviour, you're in real trouble.
