(For versions earlier than Windows 7, other WMI classes are required). To find information about current versions of Windows, I can use the SoftwareLicensingProduct WMI class. The WMI team wrote a great article about CIM cmdlets on the Windows PowerShell Blog that you may want to read: Introduction to CIM Cmdlets.
