okay guys.. simple situation

the time is around 1 am.

you have a file around 100mb to transfer between 2 pc. file sharing is not available but you have MSN and a USB drive that is almost full.

USB drive is full and you need to empty it, but those files are important.

You have MSN that can transfer file.

so, the question is: Should you use MSn or USB drive?

which one is more convenient?+

bear in mind, the MSN is on the same network.

this is not a tech question,

i just need a simple opinion based answer.

that is what I'm trying to prove to them. use MSN within the same LAN. Speed should be fast. more convenient than emptying your important file from your USB. smile.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif brows.gif brows.gif

Ooo, so you cant use LAN? I would still suggest USB, due to troublesome iternet connections in my area

no no... LAN is available, but File Sharing is down (due to some stupid window problem). So we are left with MSN and USB brows.gif
