The OS of the client is not available - server side - remember.

If you mean, the server where your php script is running, then
$_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE'].
If you mean, what the OS and browser of the client who is viewing the product
of your script, then try $_SERVER('HTTP_USER_AGENT').
If I remember correctly, these are not guaranteed across all servers -- but
are typical.
