I don't think so. Even if he could, USB connection speed is
terribly slow
for that sort of thing.


The better way is to network the two computers. Each
PROBABLY has a network
port built in, so it's merely a matter of a cat-5 cable
connecting them and
following the steps outlined in the networking wizard.

Of course the instructions are in geekeze, so he'll need the
help of a
12-year-old male.

An alternative, assuming both can access the internet and he
has a
high-speed connection, is to use the 8-or-so Gigabyte
storage offering of
Google Mail and send the files as attachements from one
machine while
retrieving them with the other machine.
