navigator.appVersion will give you Os information.And you can use it as:
document.write(navigator.appVersion);

To detect the operating system on the client machine, your script can analyze the value of navigator.appVersion or navigator.userAgent. Below is a simple example of a script that sets the variable OSName to reflect the actual client OS. for example,
var OSName="Unknown OS";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Win")!=-1) OSName="Windows";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Mac")!=-1) OSName="MacOS";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("X11")!=-1) OSName="UNIX";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Linux")!=-1) OSName="Linux";
document.write('Your OS: '+OSName);

The question is specifically asking for the version not the platform.
