What are some cool things you can do with TWO Macs (one MBP and one MB)?

What are some interactions that can happen between two Macs?
I have a MacBook Pro, and my sister just bought a MacBook for herself.
I can sense that there must be something cool we can do between them, because it's Apple !
Any input would be appreciated, thanks and happy holidays.

You can use Bonjour to setup a file-exchange network easily and efficiently.
You can use iChat to create a video conference on your home network.
If you are into power processing, I personally have set up a miniature render farm with 3 machines all processing 3d scenes to make my own 3d movies and special effects.
You can share music through iTunes music sharing, and listen to each others music, video, and whatever-else libraries.
And thats all I can think of as of now. Hope that helps!

  • A cool thing you can do with linux/oracle

    I have been tinkering with Oracle and Linux for a while now and
    have come up with a really cool sample problem. I have been
    frustrated by the whole domain name system and expiring domain
    names. Things such as expired domain names being still active
    long after they expire. Web companies have sprung up that have
    been willing to sell you a list of domain name that will really
    expire on a certain date and time. People are paying hundreds
    of dollars for this information so that they can get a valuable
    expired domain name but... you can get it for free (with a
    little knowledge). I did this using the free download of
    Oracle. Note that I am not saying that it is OK to violate
    license agreement that Oracle has given us. Oracle has been
    very kind to allow me to download this for free so that I can
    learn to use the tool and maybe eventually sell a product with
    it. If you do what I am writing about and then sell the data
    you are in violation of the Oracle license!!!
    See http://members.home.net/joseph.j.flynn/oracle.htm for more
    info. (After @home goes bankrupt I do not know who will host my
    web. How did I ever live without this cable modem?)

    I have this thing working fairly smoothly but I am have one
    glitch. I can currently only do the .net and .org domains
    because the .com zone file unzips to greater than 2 gig. Can
    someone with a 64 bit OS unzip this file, run my script that
    removes all unecessary duplication and re-zip it? After running
    the script it will remove about half the data since each domain
    is listed twice in the zone file (once for each name server that
    will resolve the domain)
    So far this has been an academic exercise but the .com TLD is
    the most wanted of the three.

  • What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor?

    What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor? Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks. Have I finally outgrown OS 10.4.11? Would there be some other problem that would sudden make all my speed take a nose dive? I have 8.5 gigs of RAM...  Please advise!
    Thanks!  Matthew

    Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks.
    First open Console in Applications>Utilities, see if you have reapeating messages.
    How much Free Space do you have on the Hard Drive?
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

  • I have both an ipod touch and an ipad, what are some cool feauture/apps that I should use? Can I use my ipod touch to control my ipad playing itunes?

    I just got the new ipod touch and I have an iPad 2, I am just look for some opinions and recommendations as to what apps, or cool features I can use between the two. Thanks.

    Your problem is that everyone seems to be using the same iTunes store account (ID).  That's fine when a family wants to share purchased items, but that's the rub - everyone is tapping into the same account, so they can download whatever is available.
    As for icloud accounts, icloud is designed for single user use.  If multiple users share the same icloud account then all their devices will be synced together - same emails, same contacts and calendars, same notes, etc.  There is no privacy or division of data in this scenario.  The usual advice is for everyone to have their own ID for icloud, and share the family ID for iTunes store.

  • HT4623 Could not activate cellular data network. You are not subscribed to a cellular data service" "Cellular Data Plan Usage-There is no data remaining on your current plan. Would you like to add more data now?"what is the best thing i can do with this p

    Could not activate cellular data network. You are not subscribed to a cellular data service"
    "Cellular Data Plan Usage…There is no data remaining on your current plan. Would you like to add more data now?"what im going to do whit this problem??

    I have done that and it is definitely on.  My husband has the exact same phone and I upgraded his IOS at the same time, but this problem is not happening to his phone (we are also on the same plan, so our service should be the same).  Our settings appear to be identical and my phone is showing the 3G symbol at the top, so I can't understand why it won't access the network.
    I've turned it on and off twice and have reset all settings with my iTunes account, but it still isn't working.
    I'm not a complete idiot with this sort of stuff - I have tried all the obvious things.
