Right. This could be done at least in two diferent ways;
1) automated hardware discovery (thru anaconda, kudzu, script, etc) and
then report (like Ubuntu hardware detection report)
2) user input (thru form page)

The first one gives us a more detailed (and it's the best) report, but
there can be always some 'dissidents' that dont like this intrusive
report. So #2 can be in handy for those that just want to say 'it
works', and could be done without the need for a formal project.

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force
