Connecting VAIO Computers

You may use an optional i.LINK

®

1

cable (not supplied) to connect your VAIO

®

computer to another VAIO computer that has

the preinstalled Microsoft

®

Windows

®

XP operating system. Once you connect the two systems, you can use one computer

to edit, copy, or delete files on the other computer. You can also print from a printer that is attached to either computer.

To connect VAIO computers that do not have the Windows

®

XP operating system, consult the Sony Web site for support

options (

).

Connecting with an i.LINK cable

When you connect two VAIO computers, you must assign each computer a unique name. The computers can be

identified by this unique name when the two computers are networked together.
