Yeah, but I'm terrible with graphics, so hopefully someone else has provided 
for you by now?  If not, just hit me with a personal 
email and I'll get something to you.

It's pretty amazingly customizable.  There's a bunch of standard boilerplate 
stuff (that all seems pretty well-thought out) but 
the real power is that you can add whatever you want and granularly control 
which attributes get assigned to which asset types 
pretty easily (and robustly) through the web interface once you get the hang of 
it.

My only (small) criticism of the boilerplate stuff is that the model for not 
allowing a MAC address to be entered without an IP 
was frustrating for our use case (all are inventory is not always deployed and 
we'd still like to be able to store the MAC 
address(es) without having to create a "dummy" IP), so I simply created my own 
(optional) fields for MAC addresses and we instead 
use that attribute (instead of the already available one).
