Watch out, recently the relevant digit has moved to the right (somewhat like
the country?)

CALC HPCPUNAME
SERIES e3000/A500-200-14

So byte 19 is what to check on an A500.

  SETVAR NUM_PROCESSORS,STR(HPCPUNAME,12,1)

This should do the trick in most cases, i.e; 99X
and 959-989..

** Note ** Assumes (and you know what that means :-) that
your CE has configured the model string correctly..
