First, check your beeber to see if it is stuned. Then take a shower. All your PC are belong to us.

The computer was free, so for right now, this is a low buck project. I don't want to go with a beeber out of the back of someone's car - I want a high quality beeber - so I'm saving my pennies for that.

Kitty time in the sandbox?
Go to
http://www.broadbandreports.com/faq/networking - getting Win2k to talk with Windows Home can be a pain in the rump, but it is possible. Read a lot, play some, and you'll get it up and running.
Oh.. Well.. Darn it, I figure it also might be fun to point you towards Microsoft's Networking Setup Wizard located on your control panel on XP Home - Service pack 2. But seriously, spend some time on those faqs first - mucho useful information.

You're going to need plenty of antifreeze--Zerex. None of that Prestone crap, it's gotta be Zerex. And ball bearings. It's all about ball bearings.

Actually, I prefer to browse in assembler, run through my TI-90 graphing calculator. Yeah, it's a little slow, and seeing pictures is really a bear - but it's a challenge, and that's what I like :)

I'm open to suggestions on that avenue. First time setting this kind of thing up, and I figured that this was the place to come for general harassment and good ideas - scary, eh?
