Did anyone say kwatson? :-)

Seriously, I think such a tool wouldn't be too bad after all. At least the
points that I mentioned (and the hardware arch probably) should be
mentioned.

There is ver_linux, which collects info about your Linux kernel and system
tools (in case you use Linux) and does that job quite well. There should be
something like this for KDE as well, perhaps coupled with kmail.

Is there a way to start kmail with pre-set "to:" field and attachment?

Windows NT indeed has very low Total Cost of Ownership. Trouble is,
Microsoft _owns_ Windows NT. You just licensed it.
