Hey! There is a very easy way to make two computers completely identical, including files created or deleted on either computer. Here's how:
1. Upon booting the computer, type "lua" then type the command
2. os.setComputerLabel("<computer label here>")
3. when you're done, you can close the computer. If you are in creative mode, you can simply center-click the computer to give yourself an identical computer.
But there's more! Any new programs created on this new computer will be created on the original, and any programs deleted will be deleted on the original (and vice versa). There is an upside and a downside to this. The upside: This is very useful for creating a bank. You can have files created and edited by a program to keep track of money, and the user can retrieve their money from any ATM. The downside: If the data on any duplicate computer becomes corrupt, there goes everything on every computer. Use wisely!
