Will be interesting to see if there will be a measurable difference, as
always it is a trade off, convenience vs speed, let us know how it turns out.

Sure, it will theoretically transfer at the speed of the link (up to gigabit presently unless you spend some serious money on a faster topology)....but realistically the quality of the cable will determine the speed. Unless you have a second interface card you can't connect to the internet. Using a crossover cable is a point to point interface, only two connections. If a second interface is used, the second one could go to your router/cable modem and you can configure the second computer to access the internet using Windows Internet Connection Sharing.

How is your network setup? It doesn't sound like you have it setup correctly. A correct network setup would be cable modem, with a router attached to that, then a switch attached to that, then all your hosts/PCs attached to the switch, or extra ports on the router.
