Hardware serial number

I'd love to see the machine (hardware) serial number included in the reports.

Here are instructions from Microsoft on how to obtain it using command line or VBS script:

I think those instructions from MS are only going to be useful if the vendor/retailer/OEM of the PC enters the serial number themselves.

I don't believe it gets automatically entered as part of the Windows installation process.
