A LAN is only for a local network aka "inside the building" (not totally correct though), hence Local Area Network. You can't put up a LAN to a building that is 10 states away, or even in another country...
They proberly use the net to connect to other McDonalds affiliates and to the main office...
but blade said they only use it to connect to the internet to look at certain things, nothing else? But maybe you're right.
Can't they just have one pc connected to the internet? Then the whole building wouldn't be at risk constantly, just one pc, and have a firewall or whatever on it, and a lot of virus software.
Stupid Macdonalds...
