I ran that and got this:
$ sudo dmidecode | grep -A3 '^System Information'

What does that mean, other than the OEM didn't bother to fill in the
info on the m/b itself. As I recall, it's an ASROCK I bought in 2015
or 2016 - the BIOS says AMI c. 2015:
$ sudo dmidecode --type bios
# dmidecode 3.2
Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.
SMBIOS 2.8 present.
Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 24 bytes
