Here are couple of things in addition to what you already wrote.

lshw                -- info about hardware
lshw-gtk
lspci -vv           -- displays all devices connected to your PCI bus
lsscsi
lsusb
ls -al /proc/kcore  -- to see how much ram is installed
df -h               -- displays disk usage information
fdisk -l  -- displays all disks/partitions that your computer knows about
free -m   -- displays memory usage
/proc/ide       -- to see the detected IDE drives
/proc/bus/scsi  -- to see the identified scsi systems
/proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info -- to see capabilities of CD drives.
dmidecode                -- for serial numbers, BIOS revisions
