With a hub, the computers *can* talk to each other and the internet.
Presumably you would want to have a router and usually dsl/cable modem
connection.  The router may have one or several ports built in.

You can have many ethernet ports on a computer.  You can have a motherboard
ethernet port and a single port card, or even a 4 port
10/100 card.
If you are running NT 4 or Win2K or Win XP (Ugh), you can have the computer
route between the ports to share data.

You can have a hub or a router.  With a hub, you can have the computers talk
to each other  OR to the internet.  BUT NOT BOTH.

With 2 ethernet ports on one computer and turning on ICS  (Internet
connection sharing) in W98 Se or W2k/XP  you can have both.

If you have a router ($100 to $150) you can have both without using ICS.

I hope that this helps.. John, K1AE
