Got it.  I did some digging but I found it.  I had to add a tab and then
add it to that.  I also found the options as well.  There are tons of
things to monitor in there.  Right now, my current CPU is dead on.  It
reads 3200.  Now when I upgrade, I know where to go look.  I can also
compare to what cpuinfo says too. 

Thanks much.
