===================
Tom,

The "two old machines" I referred to are a W95 laptop and a 486/w3.1 box
neither one has any USB jacks on them, so Jeans reccomendation for using
DCC would be my only option.

I have used DCC on the laptop with success a long time ago, but I think
the 486 box isn't gonna do DCC very well.

My thoughts were to add NICs to them to plug them in to my router for a
wired Local Area Net.

I have a ISA NIC in the 486 box and I have been playing with the ARACHNE
browser trying to get it to 'talk' to the NIC and router but so far no
success.

The NIC ISA card in the 486 box was given to me a long time ago, but I
didn't get any software.

I have tried adding a couple of different drivers, from ARACHNE, to my
AUTOEXEC.BAT but it hasn't helped me in getting the 486 box to talk to
the router.  :-(

(Adding comments to the Top of a message makes this look like some of
the "Business" emails I have received once in a while.

TW>It sure does. I just TI Imaged my 300 Mhz Gateway Laptop with USB-1

TW>Using the USB drivers Alan pointed me to by67 the way.


TW>JP> EV> Doubt that TI could do anything for those two old machines?  ;-}

TW>JP>        TI shines on a machine that has USB ports. Maybe DCC could be
