Why use buttons and not tabs? Tabs are far more flexible as they can be
re-arranged, docked differently etc.

I think the current design has too much on one big page, so yes, I'd want
to see those split up onto different tabs. Not sure about the grouping
though. Maybe:

Summary (OS info, system specs etc)
CPU
Memory
Storage (including I/O)

Process info would be included on each tab as related to that tab's content
- e.g. CPU per process on the CPU tab, memory per process on the memory
tab, etc..)
