Otherwise a web server, ftp server, rsync server or scp may be appropriate. In terms of hardware, if you just want to exchange files, I recommend getting two USB to ethernet adapters and a ethernet hub or cross-over cable. You may have success with some kinds of usb host to usb host cables, but I haven't tried it with Windows, and you will likely need the right cable type (eg the NetChip 1080 and Belkin / eTEK designs work, but others probably won't).
