You can also use WMI to query the OS information using this command:
wmic os get Caption, Version, OperatingSystemSKU, OSProductSuite
You should see something like this:
Caption OperatingSystemSKU OSProductSuite Version Microsoft Windows 8.1 Single Language 100 768 6.3.9600
OS SKU codes are explained here and here. 100 (0x64) stands for PRODUCT_CORE_SINGLELANGUAGE
OSProductSuite codes are explained here. 768 (0x300) = 512 (0x200) + 256 (0x100)
This means Windows Home Edition is installed and Terminal Services is installed, but only one interactive session is supported.
