Say I'm in a room in my house with a laptop that has a wireless connection.
Add to that another laptop that does not have wireless but has an ethernet
adapter.  Is there a way to run an ethernet cable between the two laptops so
that the non-wireless laptop can get online?  Special ethernet cable?  Does
WinXP detect this automagically, or is there any manual configuration that
needs to happen?

What if I also would like to copy files from one laptop to the other?  Could
I use this same connection?

TIA,
Dan
