        What i do is just cut all the files and paste it to my ipod and then transfer it to my pc. Easy.

          For macs it's a patch cable I think?? ethernet. Forms a network and your other computer shows on your desktop and you can put in anything you like . I assume pcs would operate in a similar way.

            You need a X cross over cable if your not using a hub or router.

            Set your ip address to something similar, 192.168.1.1 and 1.2 ensure your subnet mask is the same i.e 255.255.255.0 these settings are in TCP-IP settings on your windows network config.

            Create a shared folder on the target PC, ensure you can access this from the lappy, then just cut and paste.

                i would create a share imo. no worries about cables and shit.
                w/ macs VERY easy. get a firewire cable, plug it in the laptop start it up whlie holding down the "T" and then plug it into the desktop... it shows up as a second drive on the desktop

                    why not just burn a damn cd or dvd with the files on it.

                      ^^^ Thought this could take a while but laptops don't have huge harddrives do they? Would mean you had everything backed up as well.

                          Or use a portable hdd if you own one. Something big.

                            It's exactly the same on a mac as it is on a pc.

                            Crossover cable is all you need, which will set you back about $5.

                            No configuration is needed as I'm pretty sure windows' auto config ips share the same subnet.
