You can connect your VAIO® Notebook to another VAIO Notebook that has the preinstalled Windows Me operating system or the Sony Smart Connect 3.0 software preinstalled. You may use an optional i.LINK*® cable to connect the two systems, then use one computer to edit, copy, or delete files on the other computer. You can also print from a printer that is attached to either computer. Select the STD mode in Smart Connect 3.0 software to connect with another computer that has Windows Me preinstalled.

The preinstalled Smart Connect software allows you to use an i.LINK*® cable (optional) to connect your VAIO notebook to another VAIO computer that also has Smart Connect or preinstalled Windows Me. You can then use one computer to edit, copy or delete files on the other computer. You can also print from a printer attached to either computer.

See Smart Connect online help for more information.
