2.0 Getting Started
The IMP is a well design compact portable computing machine that is
both nimble as well as rugged. It will serve your needs for both
expansion as well as performance. An important aspect of the IMP is
the concept of standardizations, which means all components that
you can find off the shelf or proprietary designed will fit into the IMP. If
the peripheral is designed according to industry standard for
interconnectivity then it will fit. With that in mind, we will layout and
identify each of the component. In this section you can find each
component of the IMP with respect to its purpose and usage.
