try dmidecode

If it's not an ancient machine, grab a copy of dmidecode. It may tell such wonderful things as your motherboard name, serial, and even bios version among many other strange details. It lists all sorts of details about my laptop.

It's a GPL program by Alan Cox. Try googling for dmidecode.c. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll post a copy.

Now, right off the bat you have to worry about a recipe found in Chemical and Engineering News.
