Any sort of small performance test (if it's an easy 1-2 line command that I can remember when out and about looking at systems in shops, for example) on any kind of hardware (cpu, ram, hdd, video, audio, motherboard, monitor, battery, etc), but I think you already hit a few of those with your list above.

    And for finding out what is exactly in that box, I like lshw -html > /path/to/file/hw.html as root and then look at the resulting file in a web browser. Basically a nice formatted combo of all the different ls[pci|usb|etc] stuff plus more. Commented Dec 31, 2018 at 6:28
