A learned sage once wrote on IRC:
$^O is stupid and ugly, it wears its pants as a hat
Devel::CheckOS provides a more friendly interface to $^O, and also lets you check for various OS "families" such as "Unix", which includes things like Linux, Solaris, AIX etc.
It spares perl the embarrassment of wearing its pants on its head by covering them with a splendid Fedora.
