How did I forget about this?  I must be too highly trained....
And not have a Macintosh for development....

I'll explore the System Profiler, especially since it can output in
XML.  I already have code to import XML data files, so I could probably
adopt
that for use....  (Or just scrape the text data....)

Thanks for the suggestions!
