    For 1000-1500 computers on a network you would want to use a Class B network. A class A will give you 16,777,214 = (2^24- 2) possible hosts. Way to many.While you could still use a class A, it wouldn't be wise to use that many.

    A class C will give you 254 = (28 - 2) possible host. Not enough.

    But a Class B gives you 65,534 = (216 - 2) possible hosts
