Gui stands for Graphical User Interface. Everything on your desktop (including your (8) open terminals) are gui. (all of it) So what are you asking for... a pretty box that lights up with some silly animated blinking cpu chip and background music that displays cute little fields that contain, well, uh, basically, /proc/cpuinfo ?!?
In this context I don't think pedanticism is what's called for.
I have a question for you ... just curiosity... what part of /proc/cpuinfo do you not understand in human readable terms... since it is all, well, perfectly human readable? What do you mean when you say that you want to see the information in a ( gui )¿ I'm very serious about this. ?
OK. For starters, tell me what these mean: % egrep flags /proc/cpuinfo flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2 cx16 xtpr lahf_lm flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2 cx16 xtpr lahf_lm Disparage GUIs all you want, sometimes they're the best way to present information. Furthermore, CPU-Z consolidates information about all sorts of hardware characteristics, not merely CPU information. This is apparent from even the one screen shot I referenced.

Really? It hardly seems that way.
