Macdotnub doesn't have any hard-coded with DDR 400. Maybe the other option would be to grab the source code, adjust it accordingly and then recompile it.

eddie:

Works fine for me, great work. But if I see the pics I notice that the text lines get very long. Could you add a 'shorten' option that removes 'Processor' and 'Dual Core Processor' ?

2.2 GHz AMD Athlon™ 64 Processor 3700+ -> will be 2.2 GHz AMD Athlon™ 64 3700+
2.2 GHz AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ -> will be 2.2 GHz AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 4400+

Especcially for the X2 owners this could be useful.

How about a patch that replaces the CPU manufacturer from 'Intel' to 'AMD'? You can test it in the Activity Monitor. Open the package from Applications/Utilites/Activity Monitor and edit this file: Contents/Resources/<yourlanguage>.lproj/localizable.strings. Search for 'intel' and replace it here

/* Name of intel architecture */
"Intel" = " AMD";

I tested various versions 'AMD', 'AMD/x86', 'AMD-x86', 'x86' etc., the best was ' AMD' with two spaces at the beginning. Without spaces it doesn't look good. If you use the spaces it's better and it is centered if there are PowerPC entries, too. For the 64bit name I used ' AMD64', also with two spaces.

In the Finder must also be an entry, but I didn't found it yet. The names here should be 'AMD' and 'AMD (64 bit)'. Maybe in the System profiler and in the Console/Crash Reporter are Intel entries.

BTW: 'Cause we were talking about Activity Monitor: Drag it in the Dock and start it hidden at login. If you have a program that allows hotkeys (Butler in my case) you can assign Ctrl-Alt-Del (, on the keypad) to it and you could open a task-manager in a way as long time used in Windows. If you set the Dock symbol to 'CPU history', you always have your CPU(s) usage in the view, if its gettin' too much without a reason you can check what's needing it or if a program is hanging. I often use the Activity Monitor.

There are some problems with this method when trying to remove some strings. I will look into it more though, see what I can improve.
