Vista - How to check service packs on remote computers.

Hello,
I am wanting to write a script that will take a list of server names and
return the OS and service pack level.
I have written
$ser= get-Content c:\wmi\servers.txt
Get-WmiObject win32_osrecoveryconfiguration -computername $ser |
Format-Table __server, name
This gives a list of the server and the OS but not the Service Pack level.

Thanks for any help

$ser= get-Content c:\wmi\servers.txt

foreach($s in $ser)
{
$ServicePack = Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem -ComputerName $s
$ServicePack = $ServicePack.ServicePackMajorVersion
Write-Host "Server [$s] has SP [$ServicePack]"
}
