Processor Info/ Systeminfo

HI I'm trying to figure out system information like what you get from a linux machine when you cat /proc/cpuinfo (for CPU speed/type) OR cat /proc/version (for OS)

I need to be able to tell if I have a g4 or g5 plus how fast it is for a project I'm doing on a bunch of the computers in my lab

Thanks
Swift
 
Sorry I forgot to mention I need to do this in the console so I could figure it out via ssh.

Thanks

you can actually just

sysctl hw

There's also a

system_profiler

If you run that one without any flags, be warned - it will take rather a while to run, as it will print out every single piece of info available in the System Profiler GUI. There's a reasonably good manpage for it, just about any info you need should be available...
