Windows NT 4.0 Server is your only option if you need:

·        Dial-up networking that supports multiple clients at the same time

·        File and print sharing for Macintosh computers

·        Easy file and print sharing over a router (such as between branch offices)

·        More than 10 networked clients

Windows NT 4.0 Server is usually your best option if you need:

·        Dial-up networking that gives clients access to your network

·        An application server

·        A high performance file and/or print server

·        A print server that shares AppleTalk printers

·        File and print sharing for UNIX computers

Windows NT 4.0 Workstation, Windows 95, or Windows for Workgroups may be a solution if:

·        You want peer to peer networking

·        No more than ten clients will access any resources on one server at a time

·        Most of your work involves applications and data stored on the client PCs, and working with data files over the network is the exception rather than the rule

·        When you open files on another user's computer, that other user can afford to have productivity applications slow down
