<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a Mac233G3 PowerBook laptop (a &quot;Wall Street&quot;) and a 4-year old PC (a Dell PentiumI). The PC has an internal Zip and an internal Hewlett-Packard CD-rewriter. Neither computer has USB. A printer is connected to each computer. How might I create a network that would enable me, while working on the Mac, to use the PC's Zip and CD-rewriter to write on CD-R and CD-RW disks as well as to read them? Also, what equipment would I need and what would I have to do with it to enable me, while working on the PC, to use the printer connected to the Mac to print to the PC?

Networking PCs and Macs

Apple devices including Macs, iPhones, iPods and iPad support standard wired and wireless networking technologies, but they also utilize custom applications and some special techniques for networking with each other and with non-Apple devices. Apple manufacturers the AirPort line of wireless networking products, and has its own networking protocols, AppleTalk and AFP (Apple Filing Protocol).
