I have bluetooth on my pc, which I use to transfer pics (not porn, obviously - that would be immoral & wrong) onto my mobile, but what I want to know is:
Can I network 2 pc's if I have B/T on both of them? If so, could I use it to share a broadband connection?
I'm a bit green when it comes to networking, so be gentle with me you 'orrible lot!

the main question is, how far apart are the computers, but yeah, it should be possible.

puters will be next to each other.
Will I still be able to get the same speed on the internet connection?

how much is a bluetooth adaptor thingy?
reason i ask is because for about $20 you could have 2 NIC cards and a crossover cable which is way faster than bluetooth, and very easy to set up.
