Concerns:
- Online sections/student who want to complete labs off campus will require students supply:
- A computer (x86/AMD64) compatible with :
- They have administrator/permission to install software and reconfigure things on
- At 50 GB of free disk space - VM's
- At least 8 GB RAM - VM's
- Processor supports virtualizationÂ
- An additional wired NICÂ Â - Lab 9-1
- A wired switch - Lab 9-1
- A networked printer to add by IP for 6-2 and 6-7
- Reasonable internet connection for downloading
- ~5 GB Windows 10 ISO
- ~5 GB for Windows Server 2012 R2/2016
- ~1.7 GB Fedora ISO
- ~500 for VMware Workstation or ~110 MB for VirtualBox
- A computer (x86/AMD64) compatible with :
- Labs were written for 1607, Imagine provides 1803, classrooms are 1709. Notable differences
- Control Panel is no longer on the start button context menu
- Command prompt is replaced by powershell on start button context menu
- Start button content menu "System" option is the Windows App instead of the Classic Control panel item
