You should include a screenshot for each step in your proof-of-concept document.
1. Change the name of the computer to yourfirstInitialLastName-PC (i.e., jsmith-PC)
2. Change the desktop theme and take a screenshot. Include the current date and time
in the taskbar.
3. Use PowerShell to create a local user account called yourFirstInitialLastName (i.e.,
jsmith)
