description Systems and methods are disclosed which provide upgrade information for at least one client computer. The method includes the steps of detecting a current hardware configuration of the client computer, cross-referencing at least some of the information gathered during the detecting step with product specifications contained in a database, identifying an upgrade package for upgrading the client computer, wherein the identification of the upgrade package is based at least partially upon the information gathered during the detecting step and cross-referenced with the product specification database, and recommending use of the upgrade package for upgrading the client computer. The system and method may be used to provide upgrade information for a plurality of networked computers.
