This is a true geek's paradise! I have 3 laptop computers. The first is my main, which I got through school. The second, a guy I used to work with bought a new laptop for his birthday in July and sold me his old one for $50. The "I" key is missing, but the plunger is still there, so i can still type with it. I use it for a juke box with windows media player, and a printer server, i've got my printer plugged into it and I've mapped it to my other computer across my wireless network so I can print from my main and it goes through my secondary to the printer. I also use it to back up my files from my main.
My third computer is from work. It's set up with a VPN to the network so when I'm on call, I can connect into the company network to do diagnostics on our systems.
The best part is that I downloaded a free program called synergy. This allows me to connect all 3 computers together through the wireless network, and use one wireless keyboard and mouse to control them all. I just move my mouse to the left or right and i'm working on that computer.
So now I can sit at my new desk, looking at 3 screens, and just point my mouse to whichever I want to work on at the moment. And it's all wireless! (well, except for the work computer, you can't have a VPN over a wireless network for security reasons)
This is so cool, I can just barely fathom it myself, and I'm a geek!
