def Asset
  name - CharField
  manufacturer - ForeignKey
  location - Foreign Key
  asset_type - ForeignKey
  properties - ManyToManyField

def Properties
  name - CharField

Properties would include as many or as few as you'd like (Model
Number, Serial Number, Hard Disk), and the M2M field would let users
as many or as few properties as they wanted to.
