What i am interested in is sharing information and moving files between both computers, safely! Thay are only 2 foot apart but would like to be able to swap files over as and when required.
One is running on a athlon 2g chip and the other a 3g64 bit, the 2 gig one has a direct cable connection to the internet and the other i rarely use for such, mainly to protect the data and opperating system from on line threats. The question being is, could i link them both together with an ethernet cable, without the need for a router or what would you suggest? A detailed account on how to achieve this would be gratefully appreciated.
If this is possible, would it also be possible to use the resources on one for burning dvd's with files from either?
Thanks
