I would think that networking is definitely the solution. If you're
talking about desktops, network cards are quite inexpensive these

if you can find some cheap network cards it should be pretty easy?

Don't know what they go for now though - I bought two old junk computers
at a government sale for a few bucks and used the cards from those to do
exactly what you want to do.
