You mean so Windows computers and Macs can both use them? Just add Windows

If you have just one WinXP box, get something like PC MacLan which will let
it do AppleTalk file sharing. There are other options but I think that would

You should check out MacWindows.com, particularly this page
http://www.macwindows.com/peertips.html it's a good site.
