How about this then:

   2  =  multi-user, no network, no X
   3  =  multi-user and network, no X
   4  =  multi-user, no network, X
   5  =  everything

This uses up all the _traditionally_ available slots, but I don't know any
reason why we couldn't use the whole range of numbers and capital letters.
A local system administrator could define a number of states, if he
wanted.
