If I wanted to query against two SQL Server databases that are on a different machine would I have to used sp_linkedservers And is that my only option?

Ofcourse.. Check BOL for furthur details. use fully qualified name in the Query for selecting the records.

No, you have another option to linked servers. Look up OPENROWSET in BOL

Sorry Sekar, we were submitting replies at the same time. The "No" wasn't meant for you, so don't think I was being rude :)

And we all forget things ...
