You
can get the system information by string processing the results of

issue terminal commands on Java, like for example to get the video card
specs you may process the results of "glxinfo | grep vendor". You can
also get the HDD Physical capacity by filtering the results by grep of
the "df" command. ^_^
This is what I find weird. Java is by definition platform-independent.
Any method of fetching system-specific information is going to be by
definition platform-DEPENDENT. So what gives?

Thanks for clearing things up! I failed to add that the solution that I
came up would only be applicable on unix platforms. Being a PHP
developer I came out with that solution since I can issue shell
commands with exec() function. After googling a while, I found that
there's a way to invoke shell commands in Java by Runtime.exec()
function. ^_^
