I suspect it isn't actually "their" PCINFO program, so you'll need to look at the many utilities out there named PCINFO (or PC-INFO). And my guess would be shareware.

Please, help me, where can i download?
Please..
I managed to find two other programs called PC Info from these two sites, but they are all very basic and don't look anything like what you're looking for.

Maybe if you can get a copy of the book from amazon or ebay the book itself will provide more information about the program?
EDIT: Well... the book may not be any help either, because I found this:
https://openlibrary.org/works/OL3547518W/The_486_book
And with a free account I can look through the whole book and the section about the companion disk only mentions "SYSINFO" which looks like a different program as well, even though the cover mentions "PCINFO".
My Google-Foo is not good enough for this one!
Now for some blitting from the back buffer.
I have an Abacus book (Upgrading and Maintaining your PC, from 1993 or so) came with a utility floppy. I'll check and return back to you. I still have the exact contents, but I'm not sure if it came with a program called PCINFO. In anyways, I can send you the floppy contents.

Just because I'm curious, would it be possible to have this uploaded somewhere just in case others are looking for it?

I can attach it here, but I have not much idea if it will be proper considering forum rules.

That's true. I doubt anyone associated with the program still cares about it since it is seemingly not available anywhere anymore, but something like this should be left to a moderator to decide. The site does host a lot of old hard to find files though.
