hi

As Richard said you can go wireless. I chose this route and as a complete non-techy I now run three laptops, a desktop computer and a multifunction printer on the network.

Using wireless it was easy. No messy connectors etc etc.

Information is shared across the units both in and out without any problems.

The computers I have use XP, 2 on Vista and one on Windows 7.

I did have some slight problem with sharing data across Vista and Windows 7 but help and advice from here ( especially John in Kansas) pointed me in the right direction.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
