Transfering files
I have a laptop and now my cd drive won't work. I'm going to sell my computer but I have a bunch of large files that I need to save somehow. Since I can't copy them to cd's is there any way I can connect my laptop to another computer and transfer the files so that I can save them onto cd's on another computer? I don't know anything about computers and I don't want to spend a lot of money, so please keep it simple.Thanks.

if they both have networking cards you could network them together and transfer the files over the cable... that's prolly the easiest way... other than that you could buy an external USB/FireWire HDD but that'll cost a lot of cash...
