I think that the other list members are missunderstanding my comment? Yes, you can
share an internet connection between 2 pee cees, 2 macs, or one of each! But, this is
involving of a separate piece of hardware, such as an ethernet card, appletalk port or
suche? NOT, allowing 2 separate computers, each one dialing in toe an ISP with a
separate modem! Because, only a PeeCee "grabs" ahold of an ISP line, without allowing
any other "leechers?"
The older Macs, beige and before "share" the node?

I've never had that problem either, in fact it's invariably my second box
using most of the bandwidth, for gaming, while the first sits nearly idle,
with maybe mIRC and ICQ open.
