6 I don't know of one. You can use lspci to get a list of devices, but
7 not the model number. You'd have to read BIOS to figure this out I
8 think. Where that info is held in BIOS probably differs from
9 manufacturer to manufacturer.

11 I'm interested also. If this was possible then it seems that a Linux
12 install could do an even better job.
