Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 I used this on a bunch of machines earlier today to help produce the page
 [http://wiki.sagemath.org/skynet].  Very nice.  I don't know how useful
 the username, pwd, and shell lines are, but they don't hurt.  On two
 machines, both with processors described by {{{arch}}} as "ia64" (is that
 itanium?), there is no line "model name" in /proc/cpuinfo, so the
 corresponding line in the summary printed by the script ends up blank.
 Otherwise, it seems to work well on all of the linux machines I tried.

 On Mac OS X, I think a lot of the relevant information can be extracted by
 running the command {{{sysctl -a}}}.  See
 
[http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man8/sysctl.8.html]
 and
 
[http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/sysctl.3.html].
