    Ya cable would be the cheapest and easiest way.
    Or you can buy gaming network kits:
    2 x Network Cards.
    1 of the cards has a build in 4 port hub!
    And a couple of patch leads.
    Kharn has one of these kits so you could try and contact him for approx price but there only about 150 pounds. <-pound sign would'nt work. doh

    £150 - forget it.
    But 2 2nd hand network cards (£10 each, try the for sale board) and a crossever cat5 cable (£5).
    Total = £25

    I got two pc's at home one fairly old 120mhz and another newish one

    Now how do connected the 2 together so as I can play QW from em.

    I have one of those serial cables ( I dunno )but there is no port in the old pc to take it is there any other way of connecting this pc's for gameplay.
