- Lynn,
- You might try getting the program 'Lap-Link', I'm sure there are
- some mail order suppliers around. My understanding is that it is
- designed to transfer information between a laptop and a desk model, but
- it will work equally between desk top models. My understanding is that you
- connect the two parallel ports together and run the program.

- I have never used it but a co-worker loves it!
