</div>Assuming you run Linux:<br>
<br>
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo<br>
<br>
<br>
On Windoze you can run some non-m$ utilityto determine whatever type of<br>
CPU is present.<br>

<br>As for Windows, you can run winmsd on OSes previous to Vista, or in Vista you can run msinfo32.exe and it will give you your CPUinfo. If you want rediculous granularity you can download siw.exe (google it) but the built-in Windows stuff should be verbose enough.<br>
