its fair to say the layout is the same, but it uses the vb3 style, why would you wana use a style which doesnt fit the forums? though I'm sure another layout can be thought of!
just to make the EOF happy, he could change the layout, I know of other forums who use this, as its already been done!
http://forums.pcper.com do it, but no pics, but also list the system in the postbit, where user can click on a my system link and it shows the users system and I've been told H]ard|Forums has something in the works!
This can also be done using the custom fields vb3 offers!
Edit: another site with a similar idea
