I have a couple powermacs and PC's that I use with ethernet alot. A shared Internet connection from another computer is easy to access with your Mac, just got to the TCP/IP control panel and set it to access the DHCP server, and you're home free. :P (Or you might have to do it manually, but probably not) That way you can have multiple comps online at once. We have about 6 in our house on a dialup via Wi-Fi. (Slow, I know, but it's internet) Sent from a PowerMac 7300/180 with Mac OS 8.1 and Microsoft Internet Mail and News 3.0.
