Sure, '24 CPUs' is short enough. But by "listing all 24 CPUs", I mean something like the output of "cat /proc/cpuinfo", which really is quite long. I am +1 concerning a command, say, system_info(). As Craig said, a system_info() command will come in handy not only when submitting a help request. But to be helpful in scripts, it should probably not just print something on screen, but return a dictionary D, where - D['CPU'] is a list of strings describing each CPU - D['gcc'] is the gcc version - D['version'] is the sage version and so on, or something in that style. And adding the function name to the banner is OK, I think.
