			<description><![CDATA[<p>The original idea aims to collect detailed HW configurations (through an automatic standalone &quot;system information grabber&quot; bootdisk) from user&#039;s machine(s) to allow OSes developers to better match compatibility issues.</p><p>After some discussion, i realized that this kind of database could be used for mutch many goals such as:</p><p>1. Collecting drivers performances/functionality related to machine configuration (to be clear: a more-reliable&nbsp; <a href="http://www.driverguide.com/">Driver Guide</a>-like rating panel);</p><p>2. Generating specific (aka per-user) RSS-like feeds for drivers update;</p><p>3. Collecting/comparing more detailed and reliable machine performances and relative stats (such as <a href="http://www.techpowerup.com/ocdb/">techPowerUp! Overclocking Database</a>&#039;s Automated Test Suite);</p><p>4. Help manufacturers to improve their products compatibility with other components;</p><p>5. &lt;anything else&gt;</p><br /><p>Let me know what you think.</p>]]></description>
