Please, by all means, go somewhere else. I have a wireless network
with 4 stationary computers wireless, 2 hard wired, and an occasional
laptop in the mix. I run WinXP Pro on all, have wireless print
server on the printer, have a cable modem (Linksys and the wireless
router is Linksys).
Stop bitching and learn HOW to set up a network or sell everything you
have (I'll buy it for .05 on the dollar) and use the $ to buy Apple or
Linux OS or whatever...maybe pen, paper, envelopes, and stamps would
better suit your needs.
