Question

A small company with 100 computers has hired you to install a local area network. All of the users perform functions like email, browsing and Office software. In addition, 25 of them also do a large number of client/server requests into a database system. Which local area network operating system would you recommend?

Answer 1

Answer to the following question is as follows;

Step-by-step explanation:

Windows 7 for 100 users and Windows 8.1 for 25 users are the best options since they both enable networking and active directory, and Windows 8.1 also offers Windows server capabilities.

Winxp would therefore work for $100, but it is unsupported and has no updates.

If you wish to go with open source, you can choose Ubuntu 16 or 18 or Linux.
