Let's talk about networking then. Sorry that I didn't answer the question earlier.

Logically, I have 2 PC's. One is this busted Dell notebook. The other is the Desktop that I'm using right now to do the dvd burning.

Now even IF i do set up a network between these two, where would I copy the data to?

I have about 500 gigs in the desktop but it's all in NTFS format.
