If i have a netbook computer that doesnt have a DVD drive can i connect it to another computer and install from the second computers DVD drive onto the netbook?

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.

Why won't your sealed ink-jet cartridge that expired in the 1990s' print?
