Sharing peripheral devices
Each computer that is connected to the network can share the same peripheral
devices, such as a printer. Select print from the computer you are currently using
and your file is automatically printed on your printer no matter where it is
located on your network.
Streaming audio and video files
With a network, you can store audio files (such as the popular .MP3 files) and
video files on any networked computer, then play them on any of the other
computers or devices connected to your network. This process is called
streaming.
Playing multi-player games
With a home network, you can play multi-player games. Load a game like
Microsoft Midtown Madness 2 on your computers, and in minutes, you and your
friends can race in competing cars through the streets of San Francisco.
