Can I connect my new computer to another computer to share files?
!
Yes. You can connect two PCs together to share files. Both should be
running the same file-sharing programs, such as Laplink, Kermit, or Direct
Cable Connect. To connect the two PCs, use either a crossover serial cable
(if using the PC serial ports to transfer data) or a crossover parallel cable (if
using the PC parallel ports to transfer data). The data-transfer program you
use determines which port you use. Parallel connections are faster than serial
ports. If you intend to transfer data between PCs frequently, you might want
to purchase a second parallel port for one or both PCs.

What is a cookie?
!
A cookie is a very small text file put on your hard drive by some Web pages
to be used by other Web pages. Cookies are sometimes used by advertisers
to keep track of the Web sites you visit. Although some people do not like
having anything added to their hard drive without their consent, and others
worry about invasion of privacy, cookies are extremely limited in what they
can do. For example, cookies cannot scan your hard drive for data. They are
just simple, small text files that reside on your computer's hard drive.
