Getting the Appdata Directory with Python and PEP?

Thanks for the help on PEP, but I can't find a way to get the application support (appdata on Windows, no idea on Linux). If I do:
print os.environ['HOME']
I get: '/Users/eamonn', as that is my home directory. But when I do:
print os.environ['APPDATA']
I get an error. But when I do:
print os.getenv('APPDATA')
I get: None.
Apparently os.getenv() works on Windows, but I can't see a way to get this on Mac. If I could get the names of this for different OS's I could just check the OS and run the appropriate code.
Any help?
