Selected Answer: B
The advantage of option D, "No need to upgrade desktop application software," is not directly relevant to the thin-client transition. Application software still needs to be upgraded in a thin-client environment, and software updates are required just like on a regular desktop. Therefore, the primary advantages of a thin-client architecture are more efficient system management and enhanced security.

I agree with option B. The statement in option D is not accurate. In a thin client architecture, applications and software are typically managed centrally on the server or cloud infrastructure. Upgrades and updates to applications will still be necessary to ensure security, bug fixes, and new features. The centralization of application management, however, may simplify the deployment of upgrades, but it does not eliminate the need for application upgrades altogether.

"Desktop application software will never have to be upgraded." What it mean?? I think B can be correct answer, even C is much better than D.

It means the OS is loaded at boot from a central repository management. Desktops applications on that OS are centrally managed, making the management easier
