Quick and Dirty Software Inventory with PSINFO and PowerShell

Tonight I stumbled across this blog and thought it was interesting.

I like it so much I think I'm going to give it a test-drive and add it to my
utility folder.

Opinions?

Re: Quick and Dirty Software Inventory with PSINFO and PowerShell

My thoughts are why use psinfo? You have WMI that works remotely and it
returns an object so no string parsing.
