Re: Nibble mode???



<x-charset Windows-1252>I just had a thought, don't know if anyone has every tried it.  I have the
opposite situation, where I have two computers sharing the same printer and
I use an AB switch, one computer would more likely be text and the other
photographs.  Is it possible to have one computer hooked to the USB port and
one to the parallel port or do you have to have some sort of setting for one
over the other?  This way it eliminates the switch all together.  Good idea
or bad?  Is there a good place on-line to purchase a USB cable or is it just
as cheap to stop at a local Radio shack?  The whole USB thing is new to me,
I only have had a computer for a week or so that even has one, actually I
thought it only had one it actually has two.

fast.
