that includes a desktop computer
A typical home network includes the following:
one desktop computer
your new eMachines notebook
one access point
one broadband Internet connection
one printer, attached to the desktop computer
In this example that includes a current home computer setup, you simply insert 
an access point into your current setup to create your network. 
Your notebook can join the network as needed, and will share the broadband 
connection, the printer, and any files marked for sharing.
