Useful info, thanks. The eeprom command shows me that my system board 
serial # begins with 501313222 which I take to mean part number 
501-3132-22. I don't know if I can find the OBP version without 
rebooting the machine and being in front of it, but I imagine that I can 
upgrade that if necessary.

Good. This will be fun.
