I typically use the less distro-specific tools...

CPU:      $ cat /proc/cpuinfo
memory:   $ free
           $ cat /proc/swaps
PCI:      $ lspci
USB:      $ lsusb
PCMCIA:   $ cardctl info
OS:       $ lsb_release -a
hardware: # lshw

lsb_release isn't part of all distributions, but Redhat does have  
it.  I can't remember enough rpm to use it, but that's what "man rpm"  
is for.
