If your running dos type MSD.exe and it should give you some basic specs like mouse/memory/processor etc

Well, this is more like the opposite of Bragging, but heres the output of my Sysinfo Xchat script:

<Zaphod`> CPU: Mobile Pentium MMX @ 234 MHz | Mem usage: 18.9/45.3 mb (42%) | Swap usage: 23.4/204.4 mb (11%) | Disk usage(IBM-DTCA-24090): 2.7/3.7 gb (73%) | Uptime: 56 mins 45 secs

Stuff Sysinfo cant tell you: The LCD is broken. I'm using Redhat Linux 9.

Whew, twice in one day. I'm batting 1000.
