I've obtained one of these and taken a look at it with a copy of Win 7
and compared with dell-wmi and my patchset applied.  This platform's WMI
support was introduced before Win7's WMI spec was drafted, and so it
doesn't adhere to the spec.  I think the best thing to do will be create
a DMI table to match for keys that are only on a per system basis for
anything before this spec was ready.  I don't expect many other
platforms like this, but it will allow for additional granularity in
case something in the future ever deviates spec as well.
