Sounds like you're using OS X and probably 10.2? Apple System Profiler 
(ASP) 10.3 doesn't ROM version, per se, but it does show the ROM 
firmware revision number. Mine is 1.1f4, which I believe is the most 
recent update. The numbers, below, are from earlier ASP, OS 9, 
versions. They hardware ROM revisions and are interesting for answering 
questions like to I have a Rev 1 or Rev 2 logic board. If you want 
those numbers, boot into OS 9 and use that ASP. I believe you can also 
find this information via this method described in Knowledge Base 
Article 60351:

"Mac OS 8.6 includes version 2.2 which has this information in the 
System Profile information. For computers that do not have the correct 
versions of Apple System Profiler you must check the ROM revision in 
Open Firmware. To view the revision information:
1. Shut down.
2. Start up and hold down cmd-opt-o-f
3. The Boot ROM Revision is displayed at the top of the screen.
4. Type "bye" followed by <return> to continue starting up in Mac OS."
