Well, my friend and I found a place with cheap ethernet cards (2 for
$5), bought a few for the PCs lying around, got some cables and
jumpers, and with public domain IPX drivers, set up an IPX network for
under $20 or so (the most expensive part was the terminators - they
cost more'n the actual cards).

Or, if you have access to the internet at all, you can use a program
like Kali to fool your computer into thinking your SLIP/PPP connection
is an IPX network, and play some (albeit slow) multi-player games that
way.
