I'd stay away from ICS. It requires the 'main' computer to be
turned on in other for the second PC to see the shared connection.
When I tried ICS a few years ago, it gave me all kinds of grief.
A cheap hub or ethernet switch should work just fine, allowing
both users 24/7 access regardless of the state of the other PC.

yep, thats what I meant, I use it here with an ME machine connected via
my XP ICS, setup was flawless using the network wizard. Another option
for simple access without ICS is to run analogx's "Proxy", setup of that
is even easier. Keeps the cost down to a short CAT5 lead :)
