[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1638095, member: 307555"] I have played with OS X Server. It actually runs with Yosemite. I loaded it on my Macbook Pro (specs listed on the left) and it ran smoothly. I run two Windows Servers 2008 at work and OS X is MUCH simpler to run and setup. It does help to understand how to set up a server. I have not added it to the network as I have not had a good excuse to add a mac server into the mix. I just wanted to see the differences between the two OS's. One huge difference is cost - OS X Server is $19.99 and Windows Server editions is big $$$$$. A mac mini is a great suggestion. It is a cheap and easy way to set up your network and would provide more control of individual machines. And if you have adequate internet service, add Google Classrooom, which is free, and all students and staff can have all kinds of free software and storage in the cloud. Lisa [/QUOTE]
