WOW!.....thanks Rick!.....I got all KINDS of info about my laptop now!...Here's what I got:

Handle 0x0001, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
    Manufacturer: Gateway
    Product Name: T-6321
    Version: 89.22
    Serial Number: N1B85 910 16173
    UUID: 54726974-6F6E-2D2D-2D2D-0003254BA1D7
    Wake-up Type: Power Switch

Just wondering if it's as crucial to keep upgrading from version to verson, or maybe there's some kind of "automatic updater"?.....not sure....thanks again for your help!

Hello all ok so here's my question, and bear in mind this isn't a
pressing matter as I have secondary and tertiary computers.

I have a laptop Gateway T-Series 3200...(I THINK! since there's no way
of knowing cuz' there's no labels and the System only gives me "generic"
info)
250GB Hard drive
Fedora 15
Kernel Info: 2.6.43.8-1.fc15.i686 #1 SMP Mon Jun 4 20:28:56 UTC 2012
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
No special apps or tools installed aside from the usual suspects.
(Firefox, LibreOffice, Thunderbird, and Pidgin)

Try running "dmidecode" as root. In the second stanza returned you
should see "System Information" and that should contain your model
number and such.

Lots of interesting stuff in the dmidecode output.
