English to Dutch: Computer Active Ultimate Guide to... Networking
Source text - English It is possible to connect two computers directly by cables, and this is the basis of the simplest home networks, but this is limiting, not least because one computer has to be the ‘host’ and share its internet connection with the other.
Translation - Dutch U kunt twee computers direct met een kabel op elkaar aansluiten om een eenvoudig netwerkje te bouwen, maar dat heeft zo zijn beperkingen. Zo moet de ene computer voor ‘host’ (gastheer) spelen en zijn internetverbinding delen met de andere.

Source text - English The best and easiest way to back up is to make a full copy of your hard disk – known as an ‘image’. Make an image, and it’s easy to replace the computer’s operating system, programs and all your files should something go wrong.
Translation - Dutch De beste en makkelijkste manier om een back-up te maken is een complete kopie van uw harde schijf te creëren, een zogenaamd ‘image’. Daarmee kunt u het besturingssysteem, de programma’s en al uw bestanden eenvoudig herstellen als er iets misgaat.
