Desktop Management Guide
HP Intelligent Manageability provides standards-based solutions for
managing and controlling desktops, workstations, and notebook
PCs in a networked environment. HP pioneered desktop
manageability in 1995 with the introduction of the industry's first
fully manageable desktop personal computers. HP holds a patent on
the manageability technology. Since then, HP has led an
industry-wide effort to develop the standards and infrastructure
required to effectively deploy, configure, and manage desktops,
workstations, and notebook PCs. HP works closely with leading
management software solution providers in the industry to ensure
compatibility between Intelligent Manageability and these products.
Intelligent Manageability is an important aspect of our broad
commitment to providing you with PC Lifecycle Solutions that assist
you during the four phases of the desktop PC lifecycle—planning,
deployment, management, and transitions.

■
