Anyway, I bought a "Crossover" ethernet cable yesterday and then 
spent the next three+ hours trying every setting possible to get the 
two computers to talk to each other all to no avail.

You didn't mention that you went to Apple Menu:Control Panels:AppleTalk and
selected "Connect via:Ethernet" as this setting must also be made.

To connect to the other computer you must also select Chooser under the
Apple Menu, then click on the AppleShare icon.  When you do this, the other
computer should show up in the file server list.  Click on that file and
login as either a guest or enter a password depending on how you set things
up in the File Sharing menu.
