Bob R asked: I mean, if I enter in this area, would I be limiting my options in future? Somebody told me that:-
“Laptops and desktops(PCs) are completely different things once you open them up. Desktops are usually much much much easier to work with because they have more room on the inside, and are compatable with many diffent parts. Becasue laptops are so small, replacement parts are much harder to come by.”
What would you suggest me, to enter in Desktop field or laptop field? I am in Australia. Thanks

drkslvr8 asked: I have a desktop running Windows XP Home, a laptop running Windows Vista Home Premium, and an ethernet cross over cable. How do I set up the computers so I can share files between them? Neither are on any type of network (The only internet I have is dialup). Both have a base 10/100 network card.

BillC asked: I’m trying to access my network that is about 2 blocks away.
What I am looking for is a wireless card that can pick up the wireless signal over a distance of 2 city blocks away. I have tried something called super G and also super G+, and neither one was strong enough to pick up the network. I can pick up the network on my notebook when I walk just outside my door, but it is gone for 2-3 weeks having the system board replaced (for the 3rd time).

Hi asked: Lets say I had a hard drive, which I boot from already installed in a my Dell desktop, and I had another hard drive installed in my, currently non-working, Gateway desktop. Could I take the hard drive out of my Gateway desktop and put it in the Dell desktop in order to view the data on without removing the Dell desktops hard drive? Do desktops have a two or more openings to put hard drives in side their body when you open the casing? Please elaborate.
Thank you for ALL of your answers.
Sincerely, Mike — A modern-day computer user.

shmootz5 asked: It seems that the Remote Desktop software only allows Macs to connect to other Macs and PCs, but not Pcs to Macs.
Is there a way to do this? If this isn’t possible, is there any other way to connect to a remote desktop session from a Windows XP pc to a Mac?
Thanks!
