You need one for every computer that doesn't have wireless capabilities that you wish to put on the network.
ok... I don't really get it but I'll try... ok, only 1 of my PC is not connected to the internet and 1 is connected, do I still have to buy 2 wireless network cards for both?
That's what will enable the internet signal to be sent to multiple computers. And then, if you want computers connected to in wirelessly, you'll need wireless adapter cards. Or, if you want them hard-wired to the router, you'll either need a network adapter card, or most computers already have a Ethernet port on the motherboard.
oooh, so I only need one wireless network adapter for the other PC?
PCI slots aren't any better. If you want good graphics, you're going to need an AGP slot or a PCI-Express (not to be confused with standard PCI) slot.
oh I forgot bout that, it's not a standard PCI, it's a PCI-Express

At first glance, I'd say anything Nvidia had soundly trounces anything on ATI's end... sort of. You get about equal performance for equal pricing right now (though, even that's untrue, Nvidia's a little cheaper) and Nvidia's cards run cooler and use less power. Something like a Geforce 7600 GT should do you well.
i think josh is right, i need a new computer, well.. maybe a new motherboard and processor, its intel pentium 4 1.80ghz, i read the manual from the motherboard (cuz my uncle bought and build the PC for us) there is no manufacturer name... and it only supports up to 512 RAM (i think and it has only 2 slots) and the agp slot only supports up tp 4x while my video card is 8x, the chipset is Nvidia GEforce FX 5200 128mb, hope this is enough info
