Connecting Vaio Computers - Sony PCG-SR33K VAIO User Manual

Connecting VAIO Computers

The preinstalled Smart Connect software allows you to use an optional i.LINK
notebook to another VAIO computer that has Sony Smart Connect software or Windows Me
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
See the online Smart Connect Help for more information.
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.
If you have previously purchased a VAIO computer or notebook that does not have the Windows Me operating
system or Smart Connect software preinstalled, consult the Sony website for support options (
