What is the preferred way to interact with WMI using LINQ

Question

I've seem some projects out there and was wondering if anyone had any feedback. The level of maturity of these projects seems low.

Answer 1

Linq to WMI looks pretty good. I just downloaded it and had a look at it.

It basically wraps the ManagementObjectSearcher class of the System.Management namespace, builds an expression tree using the visitor pattern, executes your query and returns an IQueryable.

Simple and elegant, the code is a joy to look at.
