Using System Management This chapter is intended primarily for network administrators. Your computer is designed for manageability, so that you can redirect more of your resources to better meet your business objectives. This manageability, or "Total Cost of Ownership" (TCO), enables you or your network administrator to remotely power on your computer, format the hard disk drive, install the software of your choice (for example, Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT with user and system-management applications), and have the computer start up and function in the same way as an ordinary desktop PC. Once the computer is configured and operational, you can achieve ongoing management through software and manageability features already integrated into the client system and the network.
