Creating a hardware profile for the iso testing tracker

[Ali Linx (amjjawad)]

Hi Phill,

This is a great idea and IMHO, has to be done long time ago but never too
late :)
One Q and remember, I'm not a security expert or something:

Don't you think the information about a tester's machine is too much? each
and every port is posted and everyone can see it. Doesn't that a bit risky?
I'm asking this Q because I believe in: "better safe than sorry" and the
long list is a bit risky and makes me wonder:
Do the Devs need ALL that? really?

IMHO, as far as I've seen so far at least, what does really matter is:
CPU
RAM
Graphics Adapter

Usually, other hardware don't really make a huge difference but I could be
wrong.

If I know the answer, I wouldn't ask so I appreciate if someone could
answer :)

Thank you!
