Ok... but what if I don't know if my system is ultra 1 or newer? There's got to be something system-wise that I can look at to answer this question. I need something I can give to a user so they can find out on their own... and they're not going to have a clue if the system is an ultra 1 or newer... :) Plus to be honest, I'm not sure I always know. :)
