The answer to this depends on the type of software you're trying to install. The easiest solution would be to download the software you want, if that's possible. If you have to install it from a disc, then the next easiest way to do it would be to use a USB CD/DVD drive which you connect to your netbook. You can use a remote computer's drive as well through the network, if you're using Windows for example you can set the remote computer's drive to shared, and then use Windows' "map network drive" feature on your netbook. This would allow you to access the remote drive as a drive letter on your netbook as if it was actually attached to your computer. Be aware though that this is much slower and will only work for certain types of software.

If Vista came installed with the computer when new then it's against the licensing agreement of Microsoft to install it onto another computer. Windows is tied to the hardware of the computer so you can't install it onto other computers. If you bought the computer and a retail version of Vista at the same time then yes you can de-authorize the old one and install it onto another one.
How do you connect two printers with one parallel connection to one computer to another computer?
my answer-> Its an all-in-oneanswer b4 mine->There are two ways to make that connection. You either try finding a paraller connection splitter, ie, a box that has one input parallel connection (for the printer) and two output parallel connections (to each of the computers) and somehow toggles between the computers when needed, or you install the printer in one of the computers and establish a network connection between the computers with printer sharing.
