yeah I should have done this before I wrote but I asked google how to
apt-get it . and it did..... so I didn't need to ask. Sorry! I thought
it would be something simple like apt-get nfs. But when I found out it
wasn't I figured it was complex and I needed to ask. Google first! then you.

then it looks as if I'm going to abuse myself and go with NFS! So I
guess I need to choose one of the three computers in my network to
be the server. How can I tell the computer it is going to be a
server? I was told that a linux server is merely a linux desktop
with different programs installed by default. ???? Hmmmmm.... now
that I think of it that doesn't make much sense. What programs do I
need to install to make ubuntu 11.10 desktop into ubuntu 11.10 server?
I just attempted to apt-get nfs but the shell is 'unable to locate'
the package. Do I need to add a website to the repository list?

I usually use nfs for those things.

In all seriousness Linux to Linux its the way to go.
Unless you want to learn rsync and simply have 2 copies of
Your data which has a use also.
