'''System Profiler''' is a [[software utility]] that has been bundled with [[Mac OS]] since [[Mac OS 7.6]] (until [[Mac OS X]] it was called Apple System Profiler). It compiles technical information on all of the installed hardware, devices, drivers, applications, system settings, system software programs and [[kernel extension]]s installed on the host computer. It can export this information as [[plain text]], [[Rich Text Format|RTF]] or in the [[plist]] [[XML]] format. This information is used to diagnose problems. '''System Profiler''' can be extremely useful if attempting to diagnose a hardware problem. A user can send the information directly to [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] if the user desires. It has support for scripting automation through AppleScript and some limited support in Automator.

System information can also be accessed by using the "system_profiler" command through a Terminal application. For more information, execute "man system_profiler" or "system_profiler -h" in a Mac OS X terminal application.
