50 points to best person to help my netw

Hi,
I am trying to set up a network of 2 home computers. Both have Windows 98 on them, and I have 2 network cards. They are both capable of 10BaseT and 10Base2 setup. My question is that if there are only two computers, is a hub required??? Whatsteps should I take to make this whole thing work??? I would like access to computer ports, drives, etc… from either computer. Also, which link is better??? Best answer gets the points. Thanks!
