Keen, Wolfenstein, Doom2 Many many hours spent playing those games. They're still awesome!

Best game? Gotta go with the classics that started it all! Best FPS: Doom1/2 Best RTS: Warcraft 2/Starcraft New games have yet to impress me with the HD graphics/sound that I expect after watching so much stuff on cable in high-def.

Setting up an ad-hoc (computer to computer) wireless network is pretty straight forward. Here are some instructions. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/n..._02april08.mspx Wired is typically just a matter of using a cross over cable, setting a static IP on both systems, enable file/printer sharing, enable the guest account, and share a drive. But honestly... I'd just suggest buying a cheap Router/Access Point. It's MUCH easier.

Honestly, if somebody is asking which one to use... I'd suggest DHCP. Just leave everything in it's automatic/default/happy setting.

XPS 600 w/ 64-bit Vista RTM Pentium D 3.46 GHz Xtreme Dual Core CPU 4MB Cache, HT (OC'ed to 4.0GHz) SLI 7800 GTX 512mb (running single due to lack of driver support) (4) 500GB 7200RPM SATA HD's (Non-RAID) 3GB DDR2 667MHz RAM Overall Score - 5.3 Processor - 5.4 (5.1 non OC'ed) Memory - 5.9 Graphics - 5.9 Gaming Graphics - 5.9 Primary Hard Disk - 5.3 (5.9 with RAID 0) It's just a media center/gaming puter at the moment, almost overkill for what I mainly use it for. But it'll handle any videos ya throw at it!

As of the most recent Nvidia drivers for Vista, they're still beta, and still don't support SLI. I've got a pair of SLI 7800 GTX 512MB cards on a Vista box, but I'll have to live with no SLI until Nvidia finally releases drivers with full Vista functionality. It'll prob happen by Feb when it's released to the public.
