 Ah, that old con.
 What counts as “personal” use? Am I allowed to advertise the work I’ve
done with it to get a job? Am I allowed to do tutorials with it and post
them on a commercial site like YouTube? Am I allowed to make money from
those tutorials?

The website currently states:
"HWiNFO tools are available in various versions for different systems and use cases.
All versions are free to use in personal and non-commercial environments.
Using HWiNFO64 in a commercial environment requires the HWiNFO64 Pro license.
HWiNFO64 Pro also offers additional features."

Promoting your skills and making and selling tutorials is a commercial environment in my book.

Or you can try AIDA Extreme, another Linux-crushing sysinfo tool, for $219.90.
