Connecting VAIO computers

Connecting with i.LINK

You can use an optional i.LINK®
another VAIO computer that has the preinstalled Microsoft® Windows®
operating system or the Sony Smart Connect software preinstalled. You may use
an i.LINK cable (not supplied) to connect the two systems and then use one
computer to edit, copy, or delete files on the other computer. You can also print
from a printer that is attached to either computer.
Connecting with an i.LINK cable
✍
When you connect two VAIO computers, you must assign each computer a unique
name. The computers can be identified by this unique name when the two computers
are networked together.
To connect VAIO computers that do not have the latest Windows® operating system,
Smart Connect software may be necessary. Consult the Sony Web site for support
options (http://www.sony.com/pcsupport).

drive, confirm their operating system compatibility and required operating conditions.
