Thanks for responding Corona688,
I had considered this approach, but dismissed them because I wouldn't know where to get them. Searching for "GNU date" get zillions of hits
but that's because of all the pages with the words GNU & date anywhere on them. Doh!
I might have to just write a utility ksh program to basically count my way along, but it won't really be that concise I suppose.
Any other suggestions?
OS reports as

HP-UX hp7 B.11.11 U 9000/800
whatever that translates back to.
Thanks again,
Robin
