How to use:
```
```
===========
```
```
 
```

Create an instance of the Computer class using the following command:

```
 
```
```
`$computer = [Computer]::New( )
```
```
 
```

After gathering hardware information for a couple of seconds, `$computer will have the information available through its properties and methods:
