I just re-discovered a command line application for getting hardware information and thought I would share it in case someone does not know about it.
The name of the program is "inxi", there is a good intro here.
Basically you can get any hardware info and format it with color And unlike most of the gui apps you can just pipe the contents to a text file.
See below for example of the base system listing and then the hard drive info, the -c option and the number following it seem to change the format color scheme. Try changing the number to 4,5,6 or whatever. Options appear to stackable.
