Can I take two computers (laptops both) and plug them together directly 
from one nic to another with a "standard" ethernet cable? Or do I need 
a crossover cable or something to do that? And if I have the correct 
cable, will the two machines do some sort of peer-to-peer networking 
more or less automagically or will it be difficult to set up? One runs 
FC2, the other Mac OS X 10.3.7.
