Under User Registraton page: The difference between bold and non-bold fields might be hard to distinguish on some browsers. Under the Machines page: (these are just nits, I'm not picking on the concept, and am fully aware that it's a concept design only) 1) You will check that no non-BSD system will sneak through under "OS Name", right? 2) "CPU Make" isn't even close to comprehensive, especially if NetBSD stats will be included. You could also make "CPU Model" dynamic based on "CPU Make". 3) Hints and help would be good. For example, what does "HDD" mean? Number of hard drives? Number of Megabytes? Gigabytes? SCSI versus ATI? etc. 4) I'm not sure that "Machine Jobs" is comprehensive enough. There are a thousand and one different kinds of servers, but only one "workstation". What about "desktop", "development", "gaming", etc? At the minimum, "desktop" should be there. Overall, a very good mockup.
