In the TP 600E (what I use), if you hold down the 'F1' key and power on 
the machine, it'll put you into the BIOS.  On the main screen it tells you 
what the processor speed is.  Mine says 366Mhz, verified through Linux (as 
per another poster's suggested method).  

You may have to hold down the F1 key for a while.  I typically hold it 
until I see the BIOS background.

On a semi-related note, I was on the phone with IBM tech support a while 
ago (6+ months ago), and he told me of a key combination once in the BIOS 
that would get you to some advanced settings.  Anyone know it?  It allowed 
you to run some serious tests on the system.
