Basic Regular Expressions: Working with Hardware Data

Regular expressions allow us to take the most complicated pieces of text and match the patterns within them for a variety of results, but to learn regular expressions we have to start somewhere. Using a combination of literals, digits, and word characters, alongside some basic text processing commands (such as `grep`), we can match product IDs and architectures and parse down a large product list into something more manageable.
