It makes sharing files between my roommates and I easy.  The one complaint is that it is very difficult to share printers on computers that are running different versions of Windows (I'm using it to connect a couple XP's and a 2000).  So far, I haven't been able to get my drivers to support it correctly, and after 2 frustrating hours trying last night, I doubt I'll try again any time soon.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Justin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:10AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Family is the Network: Pure Networks' Network Magic wants to make things simple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/02/21/the-family-is-the-network-pure-networks-network-magic-wants/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/02/21/the-family-is-the-network-pure-networks-network-magic-wants/</guid><description><![CDATA[Concept is good and a cool interface.

Works like a charm, you can do the same with windows but it always seems to 'forget' how to find other devices, especially with firewalls turned on.  Net Magic solves these problems and was a snap to set up.  Haven't fully tested the net2go feature but have many situations where we want to send large files to biz associates from the home office and email is not very effective - so this could be the solution.  I also have two family web sites which I don't do a good job of updating and may be able to eliminate with NM - other products that do home web sites / file sharing or web based file lockers cost more than this product by themselves. At $29.95 it's a no brainer.  Congrats to Pure Nets for a simple, effective and well priced solution.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 21st 2005 1:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Family is the Network: Pure Networks' Network Magic wants to make things simple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/02/21/the-family-is-the-network-pure-networks-network-magic-wants/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/02/21/the-family-is-the-network-pure-networks-network-magic-wants/</guid><description><![CDATA[I would have purchased this product hand down until I noticed buried in the small type that this is not a single pay price but an automatic yearly draw on your credit card.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mikescott]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2006 12:33PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
