Too cheap for a wireless card

I have no idea how to set this up, or if it's even possible.
So my shitty old desktop (a compaq, like four years old) doesn't have a wireless card and rather than buy one I was curious if it'd be possible to use my house mates laptop (he's running unbutu) as a router. There's a way for me to just ethernet these puppies together right?
Right?

And no offense to the OP, but if you're unfamiliar with Windows networking, linux might be difficult to jump into. You might want your roommate to use the guides above.
