Crossover or not?

I'm new to home networking. I was planning on buying this switch from NewEgg, but I'll also need some cheapo cat5 for it. My question is, would the cable need to be crossover cable, or regular? I am assuming regular, but just wanna double check.

What's essentially the difference between a hub and a switch, btw?
