Re: iMac 233mhz tiger? how?
Yeah just plug them into the same router or use a cross over cable. Just make sure that you have file sharing setup on both. And the user info for both -Jonas On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 1:06 PM, Jeffrey Engle macgu...@gmail.com wrote: On Sep 23, 2009, at 1:00 PM, Jonas Ulrich wrote: The 233MHZ didn't have firewire.
