Two computer connection issues!

[Sethran]

First, I'd like to know if anyone has any advice for how to hook up RGB Output to VGA or DVI Input, for playing game consoles through my computer monitor.

Second, I'd like to know if anyone has any advice for networking a PC running on Windows 7 to a Mac, and to a printer attached to said Mac.

Thanks for the help!

Well for RGP output to VGA input

I know it's Hong Kong but it's $5. If they rip you off, you're not losing much.

As for Mac and Windows 7 networking.

Not sure, while I have a Mac and Windows computer I have yet to bother trying to share out a printer across the network or even network the two computers together. I'm also running Windows 7 on my mac right now so I might look around later on OSX to see if I can work it out.

Both computers use TCP/IP. They should network just like any 2 Microsoft machines.

Make sure your printer is shared.

*cough* not necessarily, but the main OSes these days tend to integrate fairly seamlessly.
