Well, the information is currently obtained via a sysctl, which returns (on sparc) enigma# sysctl hw.model hw.model: Sun Microsystems UltraSparc-II By comparison, here's what it does on an i386 box: > sysctl hw.model hw.model: Pentium III/Pentium III Xeon/Celeron This sysctl (and its output format) is a FreeBSD-ism. > Here is another question.
