No, all you need is a cheap linksys wireless router unless either of your pcs isnt wireless ready. I would keep one of them hardwired tho. Its far easier to rectify problems with one pc wired directly to the router
With magic my boy, with magic
vista
control panel
network and sharing centre
left pane
set up a connection or network
choose one and follow on screen instructions
xp
network connection
left-pane set up a network
you will get options to connect witlessly or through ethernet ports
if you go wireless you will need the key under the wifi router
A wireless Router will permit easy internet sharing and establish a local area network to share files and printers. A wirelss adapter would be too limiting.
Wired is always better than Wireless, so one computer should be close to the router, so go WIRED.
