< OT OT > Linking multiple pc's

Pardon this plug for Intel's AnyPoint Home Network product. But I thought there may be some threadsters who would be interested in its capabilities.

I just got the AnyPoint Home Network product from Intel and installed it today. AnyPoint allows you to network multiple pc's using your existing home telephone lines. Once networked, pc's can share drives and printers( and some other peripherals, I think ). The best thing to me is that each pc can access the internet simultaneously over the same phone line, using only 1 internet account, and only 1 pc requires a modem and ISP( no more kids tugging at my shirt ). Here's the topper: Setting this up took no time at all( ~1 hour with skimming the manuals ). AND the setup went smoothly without any glitches at all. Now that just does not happen that often. Of course it was 2 Dell's I was working with<g>. In the very near future this type product should be offered as an integral part of the pc itself; making things just that much simpler. The cost was ~190 for everything needed to link 2 pc's.

That's it.
