en Simple app showing what I need to see. The only requests are - Something on the memory tab to show small indicators for gigs used - Something on the CPU use (25, 50, 75, 100) to quickly see rather than guess. - For long text a toggle to show/hide the details.

en No doubt it's a great app for Chromebook, it shows most of the stuff in one place. The one thing that i missed here is internal storage. That should also be mentioned here. Also in network section, it should mention that if the device support Bluetooth, Lan, Wifi with yes no kind of table that will become a great plus.

en This has been a useful app on my Chromebook. I'm not sure what to replace it with when Chrome apps stop being supported next year.

en Great tool. Request: show model & serial number. And save info to csv file, with or without headers, and with default filename <SerialNum>.csv (or .txt). Or does anyone know any way to do something similar to gather info to enter into an inventory spreadsheet (for non-enterprise collection of chromebooks)? -Thanks!
