Installing software on HP mini 1035NR with shared drives

A quick video that I shot of setting up a network drive in order to install software onto the HP mini Laptop 1035NR.

The Mini has no optical drive (CD drive) so people are afraid to buy it thinking that they will not be able to do a lot of the regular tasks that a normal laptop can do. I don't want to watch movies on my Mini so I have not missed the optical drive at all!

@frenchy6684 I have not tried it from PC to Mac or Mac to PC. I think it can be done from Mac to Mac though.

@IamGraffy I'm afraid i don't have this computer any longer. I upgraded to a Macbook Pro. I am not sure what that Dazzle 107 is either so I don't have an answer for you. Sorry.
