Linux Command Line Hardware Specs Information (inxi)

So today I tried to print my PCs specs, normally I use /proc/cpuinfo, free, or lspci and its friends, but I found something new :3 inxi!
If you're using Ubuntu/Debian-based, you can install it using:

sudo apt-get install inxi

or when using ArchLinux:

pacman -Sy inxi

When executed on console, it would output something like this:

on my office's server (VMWare, ArchLinux):
