Add classes for Windows <= XP and >= Vista #14

These two are different enough that I believe they warrant separate classes defined for them.

Thanks for submitting this.

Are you saying that NT, 2K and XP should be designated as a group and anything greater than XP is also a group?

Do you have any examples of how NT, 2K and XP would render something one way, while Vista and greater might render a different way? If you have example pages (CSS and markup, along with screengrabs of different renderings), that would help.

Thanks again.

The use case I had in mind for this is ClearType, which typically means some fonts render much worse in <= XP than in >= Vista. ClearType is available on XP but not turned on by default.
