Networks allow two or more computers to connect and share information,
such as via the Internet and a web browser. To get connected, you will
need either a Modem or an Ethernet card. If you choose Ethernet, you
will need a supported driver, such as Crynwr, ODI or NDIS. The most
common protocol is TCP/IP, but many networks also support IPX/SPX. To
share data with other systems, you will need NFS or CIFS.
