The USB flash thing is designed to be a KEY, so if you HAVE a network, the key will let the computers to talk to each other. But you can program these network parameters IN without using the key.

If you have High speed internet, then get a router so you can share the internet connection, and establish a network and share printers and files. Skip the Key thing, and set the workgroup to the same group, and name each computer with a different name. Then set File and Printer sharing.

If you plan to go wireless, then get a Wireless adapter for the 2nd computer.

Good luck

I don't think flash drives is what you need man. USB flashdrives just save information in them. I would go get a WiFi USB adapter and a wireless router then both can connect to the internet. I perfer that you get the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router WRT54G and make sure the USB adapter is 802.11g aswell.
No, I'm afraid flash drives are storage devices, not communications devices. They don't talk to each other.

It may be that you're confusing flash drives with USB wireless adaptors ? They both use USB and can look similar

You'd use wireless adaptors in conjunction with a wireless router, to hook your computers together, and to the net.

Drop me a line if you need more help.
i asume you are talking about wifi usb flash drives. just plug them in and go to control panel, network setup wizzard, or wireless network setup if available. and follow the instructions.
