(Sigh!) Well, it seems that I need more explanation. I was wondering if
this would be a more resource-conserving way to do it, and
technologically easier. I would do this with network cards if I had
them. Serial ports might be good, as well as parallel. Is there a way to
make the computer do TCP/IP via serial or parallel port? So, could you
please tell me, COULD I STICK A RIBBON CABLE INTO TWO DIFFERENT
MOTHERBOARDS AND PRETEND THAT THE MBs ARE CARDS OF EACH OTHER?
