home networking question

Okay, my dad just got a used VAIO laptop w/ WinXPPRO on it, and wants to get all of his old files off of his old toshiba that's running win98se.

I seem to remember hearing that you can use a patch cable and network two computers w/out using a router, but I don't know how, or even if XP and 98 can see each other.

any advice would be helpful, my dad's at the end of his rope, and he's the kind of person who doesn't understand winzip, if you understand what I mean.
