Maybe someone in your apartment building has un-wepped (i.e. no security) wireless.  You could get a wireless nic and give it a shot.

If it doesn't work you can take it back.

if your pc doesn't have a network card, they can be had for less than 20 dollars, and often times free.

cat 5 cable is, herebout, about 7cents a foot. (a box of 1000ft costs less than 70 dollars).  rj45 ends cost ~25c/each.

just so you know what it would cost him, is all.  any true geek would do it for free if'n you listen to them everyonce in a while rant on about how microsoft is evil.

Ah, the upstairs guy did ask me if I had a network card, and I'm sure I gave him that blank look that says "you have just started talking about things I can not pretend to understand."  He actually works for the tec dept of the call centre where my SO and I met and fell in love, and has for a frighteningly long time.  Even though we live in the same house, he has a private entrance and we almost never talk - it's a very nice, repectful sort of distance, put the prospect of free high speed interenet will likely make me break that distance once things in my settle down again.

This is good-bye for now though!

Hugs and Fucks!

Damn. You'll certainly be missed (he added, doubtless too late to actually be read). Good luck with Having the Ovaries and Disturbing the Shit - and do take care of yourself...
