Hey guys Like the title says, how feasable is it for me to Parnet a CDTV and A1200 together so the A1200 can use the cd rom drive to install software?
I don't know about Parnet, but I used to have my A3000 hooked up to my PC using Siamese and a serial link. I installed OS3.9 that way off the disk in the PC's drive and all I can say is it was very slow. Very, very, very slow. How speeds over the parallel port compare to the serial port on the A3000 I couldn't say, but if speed isn't an issue then go for it.
