What does it look like after you tap to expand "Hardware"?

(Now you know the motivation for "http://www.neilvandyke.org/racket-cpuinfo/";. Making this little "cpuinfo" package was overkill for an About box, and this package is not going to be used by many apps, but I'm trying to build apps of reusable components (both pre-existing and new), and I'm entitled to overkill on a hobby project. Also, I think many people like to see some curious little goodies when they look at CPAN or PLaneT or whatever, mixed in with the more general-purpose packages. Once a package repository gets populated enough, it should elicit reactions like, "Gosh, not only do they have good support for all the usual stuff, they even have a package to [obscure thing likely no one wants to do].")
