[pchelpers] need simple way to internet connect Windows 95 and XP systems.

I'm greedy so I'm throwing out another question. I have a new 
Windows XP[PC]next to my old Windows95[PC].
I want to operate both at least until I get my hobby data
transferred. I have moved the cable connection to the
XP System, but I would like to share the cable so that
I can have both PCs on the internet with the minimum
of complexity. I am the only user of the two PCs. I don't
want to upgrade the OS to the six year old 95[PC] as 
a first thought. I've never had a fire wall on my old PC s
so I have little interest in that. A free six months of AOL
came with the XP. This could be a solution if they would
allow me to put it on old WIndows95[PC] but, I would
hate to tie up the telephone line with that sort of a connection.

When I search info on the LINKSYS cable routers I find 
more than I bargan for in complexity.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
