Collaboration in the Sugar sense is simply helping kids play together (where "play" is our name for the hardest work children do, and the most important way they [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Collaborative_Discovery discover] how the world (physical and social) works). Kids play together all the time. They talk, they run, they pretend, they throw balls back and forth. Sugar supports kids talking and playing and learning together.

			In many situations computers in the same computer lab will automatically find each other.
