In an earlier email, Daniel Soderberg suggested using the following command: system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | grep Speed I haven't gotten back to those systems to see if it works, but I'll post the results within a few days. I've been detecting CPU speed in my InstallationCheck scripts using `sysctl -n hw.cpufrequency` and `sysctl -n hw.cpufrequency_max` These are returning the correct values on most machines, but the wrong values on other machines (at least 867MHz G4 PowerBooks in 10.3.9) -- So some of our customers get a confusing message about their CPU being too slow. Are these values returned from your Javascript functions in your distribution, or are they the values returned from /usr/sbin/sysctl? If they're coming from your Javascript, check what /usr/sbin/sysctl is returning for that property and let us know if that's correct. Is there a way to accurately detect the maximum cpu speed on all OS X Macs? Or at least on the ones I need to support (G4, G5, x86 -- 10.3.9 and later)?
