Summarize this article for a 10 year old
LANtastic[1] is a peer-to-peer local area network (LAN) operating system[2] for DOS and Microsoft Windows (and formerly OS/2).[3] The New York Times described the network, which permits machines to function both as servers and as workstations,[2] as allowing computers, "to share printers and other devices."[1]
InformationWeek pointed out that "these peer-to-peer networking solutions, such as Webcorp's Web and Artisoft's LANtastic, definitely aren't powerful, but they can act as 'starter' local area networks" yet added that even Fortune-sized companies find them useful.[4]
LANtastic supports Ethernet, ARCNET and Token Ring adapters as well as its original twisted-pair adapter at 2 Mbit/s.
