there are a few ways to transfer files, you would have to choose whats best for you.
1)USB iomega zip drive
2)Jump drive from a number of vendors, some of which can serve as an MP3 player
3)If you have a digital camera the memory stick can be used with a reader

there are external floppys which attach to a USB port. They are somewhat pricey, IMO.

Is your old computer still working? If all the information is on your old hard drive you could have someone install it into the new machine. Nice to have it there for backup and you can always unhook it once information is transfered so it will not slow down the new machine.
