Get Mac OS X System Information from Terminal

Hii! Guys lets come back today on another topic related to Apple Mac OS X. Correct me if am wrong, the first thing you would after purchasing your new Macbook or iMac is double-check the system information right?

Typically you would click the Apple logo on top left -> About this Mac -> System Report. Well could you get the same information from command line? Yes you can!

Open terminal and just type the following :

system_profiler

It will list the system information in a matter of few seconds. You could also filter the command to get only specific information by piping to a grep command.

For eg :

system_profiler | grep Memory

system_profiler | grep Processor

system_profiler | grep CPU
