A simple question about Networking......
Hypothetical situation here.
If I have a PowerBook and PowerMac... how would I network them with a PC based computer? and still retain my Airport abilities between my PowerBook and PowerMac.
Example: I want to still share files back and forth easily with Rendezvous with the PowerMac and PowerBook, but how do I network a PC into this whole situation?
They would all be sharing 1 DSL line hopefully.

I assume your Macs already have ip addresses and are in the same subnet.
Just add the MS TCP/IP services to the PC (I have always wondered why it isn't there per default).
Give the PC an ip address thats in the same subnet , reboot and you should have connectivity.
If you are using a DSL modem/router it might do DHCP in which case this makes it even easier and you just have to add the ip stack to the PC (and reboot).
