[QUOTE="lil, post: 162981"] Might be worth even considering a Power Macintosh 6100/7100/8100 as they are all NuBus based 601 PowerMacs (the first Power Macintoshes). The program is called [url]http://www.opendoor.com/shareway/[/url] ShareWay IP It's a demo but that will work for a few days. Then on the PC so afp:// (Apple Share/Talk) connections will work you need: [url]http://www.cyansoftware.com/download_MacServerIP.htm[/url] That will give the PC the afp protocol; you should be able to get the two talking nicely and you may not even need ShareWay IP on the Mac. Make sure you set up the TCP/IP and File Sharing Control panels appropriately. Sorry this sounds a bit skittish - but I would give full instructions but I don't own a PC! Suffice to say - yes you can get the Quadra to talk to XP and vice versa. Vicky [/QUOTE]
