Laplink

Laplink was a proprietary piece of software that was used to synchronize laptops with desktops, using the parallel port and a LapLink cable.^[1]^[2]

LapLink typically shipped with serial and parallel cables. Serial cables had a much lower data transfer rate than parallel cables. Later LapLink iterations shipped with ethernet cables for port to port traffic.
