USB port connection

Can I transfer data between computers by connecting the USB ports together to save breaking into existing networks

Yes you can...but you can't use a standard A/A USB cable as you can damage the ports. You must aquire a special "bridged" usb cable.

There's more information here

Great read. Exploring your link opened up some very interesting information and a source for information I hadn't even thought of asking. Thanks for the link.
