If it's mostly document files you could burn a cd or dvd and transfer it that way. Else network the 2.

Well, if you have exactly one network cable, hope that it's a crossover cable. If it is, you should just be able to plug each end into both computers setup the network and begin transfering.

If you have two non-crossover(must be a better term than this!) cables and a hub/switch/router/gateway then you can plug both of your computers into that. Then make sure yoru network settings check out and begin transfering.


On second thought, if you know more about burning CDs, you'll probably be better off using a CD.
