The system requirements are depending on the role the computer is playing.

The tree main computer roles are:

Server
A computer shared by network clients. Data is being served and/or stored at this computer.
Network Client
A computer connected to a server through some kind of network. No data is stored on the client.
Stand-alone
A computer with both a small server and a client so that data can be edited and stored directly on this computer without further connections.

Please be aware that the system requirements are dynamic and will be influenced by requirements and policies applied by Microsoft and other third party vendors on their products, for example the policy on minimum Internet Explorer versions on different platforms.
