You should output lshw to a file, and open that file with firefox, as follows:
lshw -html >/tmp/specs.html && firefox /tmp/specs.html
Or
sudo lshw -html >/tmp/specs.html && firefox /tmp/specs.html
thanks for the answer , but I don't want to write the filename again

Would using a variable solve your issue? e.g.FILE="/tmp/specs.html"; lshw -html > $FILE && firefox $FILE
