What level wiring do you use for gigabit?

I don't think I'm referring to RG-11 -- was that the garden hose? It was a combination hardware/software package that you bought to let you share stuff between two computers. But I think if you had the cable, you didn't really need the software, 'cause I remember people asking if you had one of these cables.

Laplink! I just googled and found the answer. Laplink used to make the connection through your parallel port. Apparently, they now use USB ports to connect between machines...

There. I can rest easier now. [img]smile.gif[/img]
