I want to connect 2 PC's in as simple a way as possible. Does any one have any advice on the best way to do this? I have in mind that I can connect a cable to the serial port on each machine. Where does one get the appropriate cable and connectors? Are there any problems that might arise with this? How far apart can the PC's be? Is 100 ft too far? Any advice on this would be appreciated.

You can't beat the $25 system in the previous reply. I was going to suggest Desklink, from Traveling Software (makers of Laplink), but it is much more than $25.
