Re: connecting two laptops to USB - easy question

maybe a little OT but Staples has a deal where you get $3 off (an in store
coupon) when you bring in/recycle printer cartridges.  My wife as doing a
Mother's Day Photo Album for the church this year and we went thru a dozen
or so color cartridges.  She dutifully saved them and when she went in to
buy some more they THEN told her (not printed in store anywhere or on the
coupon) that you could only use "1" per visit/purchase to the store, so she
now makes it a point to stop in and buy "something" we need that before tax
will take it as little over $3 as possible, use the coupon, pay $.05 or so
for pack of pens, paper, etc.
