Bug Help pulling ${VARS} out of a web page using curl and cat | awk"

Here is the code I have so far

Code:
#!/bin/bash

INFOF="/tmp/mac.info"

curl --silent http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-2.8-aluminum-17-mid-2009-unibody-specs.html "$INFOF"

I want help putting these specs into a vars
Standard Ram: value into $VAR1
Maximum Ram: value into $VAR2
Apple Model No: value into $VAR3
Model ID: into $VAR4

I was thinking
Code:
cat | awk

would do the trick but I am lost in getting these to work correctly.

Thanks in advance.

For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
