Support Details gives you system details instantly
I really enjoy what have come to be known as single-serving sites. These are sites that do only one specific thing, but the best of them do that thing exceedingly well.
My new favorite site of this kind is Support Details. The URL is super easy to remember (supportdetails.com), and when you pay the site a visit, it lists a bunch of details about your computer that you can include when making a support request for software that you're having trouble with.
Here's a quick list of the information that Support Details offers: - Operating system - Screen resolution - Web Browser & version - Browser window size - IP address - Color depth - Javascript (enabled or disabled) - Flash version - Cookies (enabled or disabled)
You can export the details as a CSV or PDF file, or you can simply email them to a recipient by using a form that's right on the site. It's simple and effective.

Hi Mark. I hadn't seen that comment on Erez's post; I heard about Support Details through Brett Terpstra, a blogger over at our sister site tuaw.com.

Mark, I agree. No credit given, even though the comment was on their own site. I am sure commenters will think twice now before providing info to this blog.

This is only a very basic listing. Nice and clean. I hope they increase what they provide going into the future.

Works, but Flash version should really show 10.1 rather than 10.

to quote myself "I prefer http://irongeek.com/browserinfo.php
displays a bit more than just your IP address, which can be very useful."
it may not be as pretty, but it gives the same/more details.

This does seem very basic. I can't imagine it being all that useful to anyone other than a user lacking basic computer knowledge. I don't know if there is much more that can be added without posing a security risk, but I'd like more detail myself.
Still, very nice. I definitely has potential.
