The HPC has a serial port (according to the spec sheet) Use a null modem cable and connect to the serial port of the PC. On a 25 pin serial cable, connect 7 to 7 and cross 2 and 3. On a 9 pin connector, cross 2 and 3 and 5 is straight through. Set the baud rate at 38400 first, if there are errors start lowering it.

You would have to find PPP software for the HPC in order to have the pc connect to the internet.
Yup, this is a great solution.
