I'm writing a cross-platform application and I really need some basic info about the system.
Not just for switching it (I could use compile variables, since I have the same code linked in platform-specific projects).
So don't tell me that knowing the platform and architecture info is useless:
Windows RT and c#
Can anybody provide me with this info, because I don't have any easy way to get it by my-self (I have no emulator/device to work with, I'm using a netbook with linux installed on it, so no VT-d capability and so on).
P.S. Please just avoid posting something like: "use qemu, use xxx, yyyy" etc. Consider that somebody might be looking for this info as well.

Ok, and the platform value:

Note that this is from the desktop. For immersive/metro applications you will probably need a different api.
