Easy way? What borcharc said. Just get an adapter like this one (http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/151451123963?lpid=82&chn=ps), pop the drive out, and you'll be good. If you'd like to have some fun, there's a few ways to do that too. I used to have to drag files off of my old ThinkPad 760c all the time. I had the 760 running Windows 95, though, which made things a little easier... For you, you can use INTERLNK with DOSBox on the XP machine (parallel or serial passthroughs for DOSBox can be set up with these DOSBox files- http://home.arcor.de/h-a-l-900.... You can find INTERLNK for use with DOSBox or your 3.1 machine if it's missing here- http://www.kime.net/directcc/d...)

There's another way I found, using RAS, that I never used because I found it to be a bit complicated. If you'd like to play around with network shares in Windows 3.1, you're in for a treat! This page can show you how. http://www.kime.net/directcc/d...

For any of this to work, you'll need either a serial or parallel cable. You'll also need a modicum of patience, which is something I do not possess. That's why my 760 is currently functioning as a stand for the monitor attached to my Y580. Happy trails!

You should use ZZT for DOS to teach them. It looks odd at first, but is very versatile. I have entered games i made in zzt in our schools creative competitions before and placed.
