That is true. However, the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.environment.is64bitoperatingsystem.aspx" rel="nofollow">Environment.Is64BitOperatingSystem Property</a> was only introduced in .Net 4.0.  My code is compatible with any .Net version. As long as you know your client will be running .Net 4.0, though, go ahead and use the much simpler Environment property. Good catch! That is true.
