Yikes.  I could install Windoze and get that information.  How does 
one obtain that?  Currently, the machine has no operating system on 
it, so if C6 can get it, I'd need to do a complete install.  That 
takes time but little brain power.  And then, I've no idea how to 
obtain that information in C6.
