A simple crossover ethernet cable is the most that you'll need.  But
you'll need to set the laptop's nic & the SB to static IP addresses on
the same subnet. (E.g. laptop=192.168.1.100, SB=192.168.1.101).

I've put together a couple of SB setups wiring the SB directly to a
mini-itx based linux slimserver using a very short crossover cable and
static IPs.  With the wired=>wireless bridging on the SB turned on, I
can even tie the whole thing (the SB AND the server) wirelessly to the
local network.
