I'd go for the networking approach, although everybody that can utilize USB should have a thumb drive.
You don't even have to buy a hub if you have a friend that has a broadband router with a switch built in (it will have five ethernet ports in back of the router).
The router will handle issuing IP addresses to both your old laptop and the Mac. You then just have to share out the c:\ drive from your old computer and mount in on your Mac. Then it's just drag and drop to your new computer!
This may sound difficult, but it's really not. Even if you're not quite sure what you're doing, fumble around a little. You'll learn a lot about how both computers work doing this.
And, of course, you always have us to fall back on!
