* for 2 users in most instances does not differ from an optimal single user (for given tasks) computer configuration. Except perhaps you may add 2-4 GB RAM – there is never too much memory. | * for 2 users in most instances does not differ from an optimal single user (for given tasks) computer configuration.

* for 3-6 users it is a good idea to have CPU with a performance level 1-2 times higher, to increase RAM space in proportion to the number of users, install SSD and a PSU with power reserve. An optimal RAM space for a single user is about 2 GB for an office PC and 4 GB and higher for a multimedia/game-playing machine. | * for 3-6 users it is a good idea to have CPU with a performance level 1-2 times higher, to increase RAM space in proportion to the number of users, install SSD and a PSU with power reserve.

Free downloading the 30-day version of Aster you may here: [[https://www.ibik.ru/downloads-free-trial|https://www.ibik.ru/downloads-free-trial]], a tryout version has no functionality restrictions and is limited just by a free to use time. | + | For a greater number of workplaces you need anyway the preliminary system testing and adjustment.
