	Maybe I need to re-phrase. As seen below, I tried to offer info on my 
workstation. The first command returned info as expected, but the second 
command came back with nothing.
	Given my lack of knowledge in the kernel/cpu arena, I haven't been able 
to find an explanation, or fix. Anybody got any tips?
