Description

A solution similar to the “Switchboard About Plug” used by the Mac OS.
It has a “System Report” button, just like the highlighted in red in the image below.

That button opens a window with all the information about the hardware and software in the current computer, just like in the picture below.

It is very important that the elementary OS can show a report just like the above, due to the fact that if the user wants to know something about the system he would know where to look at.
