You can either use the Microsoft Direct Cable connection, or get a product such as Laplink or PCAnywhere. Direct Cable connection comes with Windows 95/98 and is free. It isn't in my opinion as easy to use and configure as Laplink/PCAnywhere. You can usually download a trial of either PCAnywhere www.symantec.com, or Laplink www.laplink.com (this may not be the address). As far as a cable, Direct Cable Connection uses a Parallel or a Null-Modem Serial cable (obtainable at any Compusa/Circuit City/Electronics Boutique/Staples/Office Depot/etc.) As far as I remember PCAnywhere and Laplink both come with the cable. -Rob > I have no need of a network, so I dont really want to spend that kind >of money.
