I am a noob to DreamCasts, I got mine last week. I looked around on eBay, and found a System Link cable. I have no idea what System Link is, however.

So what is it? Is it linking DCs together? Online?

system link is connecting two systems together by a cable in this instance in order to play multiplayer with each other. Its similar to LAN but only connected through a cable. i believe system link wasnt common on dreamcast

Indeed, if you'll check out the online games list http://dreamcast.onlineconsoles.com/phpBB2/content_gameslist.php you'll notice that only two dreamcast games use the system link: F355 Challenge and Virtual On Oratorio Tangram. (I believe this list is exhaustive, please correct me if I'm wrong).
