How to see system info

How can I get system info, not system profiler, to open when I click on the Apple symbol in the top left? All my other Macs open the system info screen that has the basics at a glance, but this computer goes straight to profiler.

MacPro 12 Core, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

I went to the link you referred me to. That shows me how to see the serial number. I can double click and see the serial number just fine but when I click "More Info", it still goes straight to Profiler

That's normal behavior, but you didn't say it went to the profiler after clicking on More Info, that's why I posted. What else did you expect to find in the About My Mac pane? It gives OS version, build number, serial number, processor info, instgalled RAM, and boot volume name,
