Ethernet crossover cable. It creates a network between two computers. 
You just need to set up the networking on each machine, and you should 
be able to mount the Mac volume on the Windows machine if you turn on 
'Windows Sharing' in the Sharing Preference Pane.

I vote crossover cable.

Then mount either the PC volume on the mac or vice versa and copy over
the data. If you don't have a crossover cable you can use the ipod to
transfer the stuff. You'll need to decide if it will take longer to
copy the data twice or got and get a crossover cable.

You have to make sure to get a crossover cable, not a regular ethernet cable.

Hmmm, actually, didn't the recent PowerBooks have the ability to use any 
ethernet cable as a crossover cable by switching internally via software?

Can't you use the iPod like a hard drive and simple copy the files
from one computer onto the iPod, walk across the room and transfer
them onto the Mac?
