Perfect!!

0-chip@bono-17:41:32-/var/cfengine/bin$ grep processor /proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
0-chip@bono-17:41:39-/var/cfengine/bin$ sudo dmidecode |grep CPU
                Description: CPU Voltage
                Description: CPU0
                Description: CPU1
0-chip@bono-17:41:41-/var/cfengine/bin$

Thanks.  Wasn't familiar with that utility at all, but I now consider it to be
