2) it is less expensive to set up and maintain than other types of network. This will help the organization to save money. The company is not concerned about security. The peer-to-peer network is not very safe and secure.

3) use all four computers and connect them to the network using hub. I can name the computers peer1, peer2, peer3 and peer4. Each of these workstations will communicate directly every other computer.

4)In case of using of a customized hub with wireless connection there will be a possibility to connect to the network additional devices with wireless connection. It can be laptops, smartphones or tablets. The only upgrade I would recommend them is to replace or add network interface card (NIC) to the workstations, which will allow them to communicate better with each other.
