How do I verify how many CPU's I have within the Terminal??? Actually I am at work on a Linux machine and need to verify if my Linux (SuSE) installation is recognizing both of my CPU's. If I could work with Macs I would, but I can't, but I need to do this because I am a QA tester for AMD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I have tried TOP and it doesn't allow showing multiple CPU's as does the Terminal in OS X.

I forgot about the special "/proc" directory. I just did the following:

cat /proc/cpuinfo

And viola! All the information regarding the CPU is printed on screen. Cool. Thanks for your help pwharff, oh no problem pwharff anytime. =)

Actually... top in Linux should show multiple CPUs:
