Ok, on my Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro "machine" says "i486". What  
does "machine" say on an Intel Core Mac? Does anyone have a 1st- 
generation Intel Mac to try that out? (I have a feeling it will also  
say "i486" and thus not help us differentiating.)

There must be a way to do this; Apple clearly does in System  
Profiler. I guess if worst came to worst we could extract the  
cpu_type out of "system_profiler -xml SPHardwareDataType". We  
wouldn't need any big database of processor types, since there was  
just one 64-bit PowerPC processor (the G5), and just one non-64-bit  
Intel processor (the Intel Core).
