1. A device information display system, comprising:
a first computing device that defines a first device information display chassis housing and includes a first computing device connector located in the first device information display chassis housing;
a device information display chassis that is dimensioned to enter and be housed in the first device information display chassis housing defined by the first computing device;
a display device that is included on the device information display chassis;
a device information display connector that is included on the device information display chassis and that is configured to connect to the first computing device connector on the first computing device; and
a device information retrieval subsystem that is included in the device information display chassis and coupled to each of the display device and the device information display connector, wherein the device information retrieval subsystem is configured to:
automatically generate and transmit, in response to the device information display chassis entering and being housed in the first device information display chassis housing defined by the first computing device such that the device information display connector connects to the first computing device connector on the first computing device, at least one show command that is configured to cause the first computing device to automatically retrieve a first text file that includes first device information associated with the first computing device and transmit the first text file via the first computing device connector;
automatically receive, from the first computing device via the first computing device connector, the first text file including the first device information that was retrieved and transmitted by the first computing device;
provide, for display on the display device subsequent to the device information display connector being disconnected from the first computing device and using the first text file, a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that includes a plurality GUI elements that are each selectable using an input subsystem that is coupled to the device information retrieval subsystem in order to retrieve and display different subsets of the first device information that are included in the first text file.
