I was the on that carried out the testing and know that it was on the 
same system.

All of the testing, including the system tables, is fully automated. 
Under FreeBSD sometimes the parsing of some component strings isn't as 
nice as Linux and other supported operating systems by the Phoronix Test 
Suite. For the BSD motherboard string parsing it's grabbing 
hw.vendor/hw.product from sysctl. Is there a better place to read the 
motherboard DMI information from?
