In the early days you had to make a crossover cable to connect two similar Ethernet devices together. Today you can get away using just the one directional cable because the Ethernet adapters are intelligent and adapt to the cable. I think.

This is perhaps the best reason for home users to choose Gigabit over 100Mbps Ethernet. No need for crossover cables when stacking switches or when connecting one computer directly to another.
