This sounds really great, Matt, except I don't get it all. When it comes to computer stuff I know ver little about the specifics. I know about all the basic stuff but not the real bulk. I'm still working on getting this thing going and have gotten someone to come over and help, he says he knows how to hook it up but I'm still nervous about it. Some of the gurus I know make fun of me because I know more about cars than computers, even thought I use computers all the time.

Good security Also
I forgot to mention that a hardware solution, Router, may also provide you with a Firewall. This is ESPECIALLY important for a computer that has a connection up at all times like yours, since 'hackers' have plenty of time to find it. The firewall can check to make sure that when you are surfing for something only information you asked for from the internet comes back, not some one trying to use your computer for other reasons. In case any of the other parts are confusing, you shouldn't have much trouble. I don't have much experience on the MAC's but for PC's running Win 98, ME, or 2000 everthing is pretty much there to set up a home network, share files and even printers.

Yeah, I know about fire walls. I'm learning about PC's more because I'm always on one, usually I'm on the Mac. Windows 98 is what I've got and it's real diff. from OS.

go macs!
|
Yes! I'm not the only Mac user! Burn the PCs! Bon fire anyone?
|
I have an avatar for you!
Here it is......
:D |
I don't like you anymore, Clark.
*smack* I love my Mac! Stop getting my help thread off topic! |
thats the first bad avatar ive seen come from you clark...

Networking
Carolyn Duncan, Thank god you love the Mac, it is a good system.
Oh and Clark Gilbert I would give you the middle finger and cus at you, but in the spirit of FIRST I will not do that. Oh by the way Carolyn you will probably need a software solution called Dave or Double Talk. I know there are other solutions. But I will get back to you on that. I will look at my catalogs and see what other solutions they are. I know in Mac OS 10.1 that it has a special sharing technique that tricks the windows machine likes it is another windows machine. These software solutions let you share the internet together, printers (including PC-only ones), and many other perphiables. Let me do some looking and I will get back to you with more options. |
Avatars
I have a couple avatars for that Kyle...but also in the spirit of FIRST i will never even think of posting them here...:)
|
Ok look,
Like I said to a lot of people your opinions are your opinions. Lets just leave it at that. |
Thanks Kyle! It's good to have velp from the Mac side too. Not that the other help is less it's just that I need help with both systems because they are so diff. You know what I mean. Anyways, OS 9 has translaters but I can never get them to work when I need them, only when it's convenient for the computer. I'll keep reading too.
GO MACS! hmm... maybe I'll add that to my sig. *BOOOS clark* |
i've always refered mac's as "Mac 'N Trash". they are ugly, and i don't like them. PC for ME!!!!!!
|
David, your the next one to get a nickname. One that will go with A1A...
