Connecting VAIO Computers

Connecting with i.LINK
You can use an optional i.LINK cable to connect your VAIO computer to another VAIO computer that has the preinstalled
®1 ®
Microsoft Windows operating system. 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 Computing Support Web site for support options (http://www.sony.com/pcsupport).
