I suppose it would depend on the hub -- if it supports full duplex, then I'd use the hub to allow for the flexibility of adding another host later.  I use a switch which supports full-duplex, so all 6 hosts in my home get full duplex.

Subject: [newbie] host to host or two host to hub?

This a general question about networking: is it better to connect two computers directly with a crossover cable than via a hub because that way it would run in full-duplex as oppose to half-duplex?
