What is the difference between a hub and a switch 4

[skipholiday]

Im so slow Can I use a router/switch the same way I would use a router/hub?
With the router/switch will I be able to share info over both my pc's as I can with my router/hub?
Thanx allot

"What is the difference between a hub and a switch"

Not-a-lot (if anything), on a small network - Quite a lot on a large network.

Regards. It not what you say but how you say it that counts...apparently.
