An alternative to LAN is simply a big timesharing system
with terminals for all users. Give two advantages of a
client-server system using a LAN.
Answer / sadaf
The LAN model can be grown incrementally. If the LAN is just a long cable. it cannot be brought down by a single failure (if the servers are replicated) It is probably cheaper.
It provides more computing power and better interactive interfaces.
In client-server system using LAN the clients can be far apart from the server where in a big timesharing system terminals can be in the range of the same building.
The client is not limited to using the big timesharing system. It can use different servers (eg. the VPN server for remote workigna and the WWW server for web).
