USB connect two computers?

I have a USB cable with identical ends. E.g.., both ends are able to fit
into the PC's USB port.

Does this qualify as a special cable to connect two computers?

Thanks

Nope.

Yup. With the right drivers and OS.
"Prolific manufacture a range of USB chips, including the PL2301 and PL2302
devices that allow two USB host controllers to be linked, providing a
simple point to point link at up to 5Mbps. This driver supports both PL2301
andPL2302 chips.

Aserton, Bencent, Butterfly, Camtel, Longshine, Prolific, Share Plus, SIIG,
StarMount, Swann, Univex, USBdevices and VVMer cables are all known to use
the PL2301 or PL2302 chips. Entrega, Xircom and Belkin adapters do not use
Prolific chips and are not supported by this driver."
