Yes, I think the first opportunity would be after it has been sent. I'm generally against asking more questions on login though, I think it would be clunky. We're considering ways to make the tool a stand-alone snap which could be much more interactive and could be installed and run independently of the "Send diagnostics" checkbox. > > * Screen(s) resolution > > This won't be correct after first boot on my system.

We're more interested in general trends than the specifics, so this might skew the data a bit, I think it will work out in the end.
