And what I'm saying is that the lease expiry does in no way identify a
system, so it should not be in a section with a title "Identity".

No.

In other words, you do not want to fix the problems with the section
titles.  I understand that.  But you did ask for review.

Looking again at the About my Computer panel, there are other
inconsistencies:

- the Build in the Software section shows the hardware model,
  (hardware model should not be in a Software section),

- the Build shows both the OLPC OS version _and_ the build number,

- the version of Fedora is not shown,

I think the Identity section might change to Hardware, and move the
hardware model up there from Build.

Here's a suggested layout:

Hardware
        Manufacturer: OLPC
        Model: XO-1.5
        Serial Number: SHC9500002A

Firmware:
        System: Q3C09                   Wireless: 9.70.20.p0

Software:
        Release: 12.1.0                 Build: 18
        Distribution: Fedora            Version: 17
        Sugar: 0.96.2

The panel already has a scroll bar to fit the "Fill license" item in.

It need not be in keeping with the implementation, that was my
original point.
