Sysinfo

Installation

sudo apt-get install sysinfo

After installed, run the program from

Applications -> System Tools -> Sysinfo

On my computer, After selecting System, Sysinfo just crashes and closes itself.

Hardinfo

sudo apt-get install hardinfo

After installed, run the program from

Applications -> System Tools -> System Profiler and Benchmark

It seems better than Sysinfo and looks similar to Windows Device Manager
