Internet on the netbook! ..then, I installed a LAN PCI network card into the desktop, plugged the broadband cable into the desktop and connected the two computers using the network card and Bingo! Two connected computers on a network both running the internet. ..then, I went to Portugal with the netbook. Fooled around with the internal wireless adapter and connected OK from various places. ..Now, I get home.
