Somewhat unsurprisingly, a quick google for "python system information osx" turned up this recipe in the ActiveState cookbook: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/303063 which should help. Looking into the sysctl command might also be useful. HTH, keep in mind that I'm *NOT* a Mac guy, at all.
