Sorry but I don't agree with this at all. Okay, strike that. I agree with the idea that money isn't everything but ... money is a huge enabler. I rented a 2 bedroom apartment even though I can only sleep in one room. That other ro

I think they mean without setting up a VCS server. You still need for the 2 machines to be able to access each other somehow, usually ssh (which is technically a server), or a file server (NFS, samba, which is also technically a server), bu
