WOW!.....thanks Rick!.....I got all KINDS of info about my laptop 
now!...Here's what I got:

Handle 0x0001, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
    Manufacturer: Gateway
    Product Name: T-6321
    Version: 89.22
    Serial Number: N1B85 910 16173
    UUID: 54726974-6F6E-2D2D-2D2D-0003254BA1D7
    Wake-up Type: Power Switch
    SKU Number: Not Specified
    Family: Not Specified

Just wondering if it's as crucial to keep upgrading from version to 
verson, or maybe there's some kind of "automatic updater"?.....not 
sure....thanks again for your help!
