Some time ago someone posted (and I'm not even sure to which group) a
little app that used AppleEvents to open the "About This Macintosh..."
box, then quit.  The intent was to drop it into the Startup Items
folder, so the box would open at startup.

Unfortunately, I neglected to grab it when it was available, expecting
it to show up at Sumex later.  No such luck.  Could someone please
email it to me?  I'd be ever so thankful.
