IntelliStation M Pro models provide a migration path for users who need more computational performance than the typical Intel Pentium III processor provides. Those who are currently using UNIX will find the IntelliStation M Pro system provides the ease of use, robustness, and configurability of their current environment. The price/performance advantages and manageability of the IntelliStation platform encourage more customers to migrate from UNIX workstations to Intel-based workstations with Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows NT , or Linux. The IntelliStation M Pro workstation is well-suited for graphic-intensive applications with a variety of graphics adapters to choose from. The manageability features of the IntelliStation workstation help you manage your systems throughout their lifecycle, beginning with Remote Deployment Manager and Software Delivery Assistant to help you quickly and easily deploy your IntelliStation system with the exact system image that you need; or use IBM ImageUltra services and have IBM manage your images for you. For more information, refer to Services Announcement 601-033, dated October 9, 2001. IBM Director Agent helps you manage your systems, allowing you to view, monitor, and control your networked computers through a Web browser or from a enterprise management application such as IBM Director, Tivoli , CA Unicenter, HP OpenView, or Microsoft SMS. From its elegant exterior design to its uncluttered interior, the system is designed for easy upgrade and power. A powerful 480-watt power supply provides power to spare for the most robust configurations. All models use one of the six slots for an AGP graphics adapter. On models using the 3Dlabs Wildcat III 6110, the PCI slot adjacent to the AGP slot is not available. This leaves five open slots in all models except four open slots in models using the 3Dlabs Wildcat III 6110 adapter. All models have six open RIMM slots for additional memory upgrades.
