Hi,

That sounds like a real good plan to me. You may want to network the Amaya 
computer to the others as well. I think the USB port could be used for that. 
This will make it much easier to get designs from the one to the other. 
Networking them together is ok as long the Amaya machines have their own 
network. All of my computers here at Melco have 2 Ethernet cards in them. 
One connects to the internal network here at Melco and the other to run 
Amaya machines on. This way I can share files without having to use a Thumb 
Drive or floppy disks. Works great with few problems.
