Quoting: 5 Linux commands you need to gather your system's most important information | ZDNET —
When I'm using Linux, I know that all the information I need is only a few commands away. If you want to know it, Linux can give it to you -- from security, network, disk space, users, and everything in between.
But what about your hardware? How do you gather information about the actual machine you are using?

Fortunately, those details are at your fingertips and I'm going to show you five commands to help you gather it. So, stretch out those fingers and get ready to type.
