Network is so easy to do with winXP too. It simply connecting a cord and enabling 2 options then restarting your PC's. You could have them all transferred in about 20-30 mins and then have the luxury of browsing your old system and sending over anything you may have overlooked, on a whim.

If you have a Creative Zen Touch (was it you who said you had one, when I was buying?) or an iPod, you should be able to use it as an external hard drive to transfer files across. [/QUOTE]Oh jeez, I never even thought about my iPod. That would work for sure, as I'm not quite sure how to set up a network between the two computers.
