The text file lshw.txt should have been on your desktop. Just double click

you can either copy the contents and paste them into the email, or add the
files as an attachment to the email.

Please protect my address like I protect yours. When sending messages to
multiple recipients, always use the BCC: (Blind carbon copy) and not To: or
CC:. Also remove all of the addresses from the message body before
forwarding the message. These simple measures prevent spy programs from
capturing the addresses shown in the recipient list and the message body.
