I actually was just trying that!  But without the success that you had.

Using your source, I still can't get the system info to write out to a file that is anything other than an empty pList of 0 key/value pairs.  

Is there a minumum operating system that this must be run on?

I got the same result. Some records don't write.

In particular records obtained from StandardAdditions or the Finder seem to have a problem.

set myThing to (system info) as record

will NOT write to a plist file.

On the other hand, a record explicitly constructed in a script WILL write to a plist file.
Records I create with a 'do shell script ... -plist' DO write to a plist file.

This is very strange ?????

It is as if some records aren't really records; or have an error in them; or something.
