Back in the 'old days' a Sneaker Net referred to transferring files from computer to computer using floppy disks. You had to put your running shoes on! Many years ago myself and a partner created a program and we would execute it on about twenty machines once a week to match up the data on all the PCs so that it was identical. It took about 8 hours and required at least two visits to every machine.
