I think the debug command is cool to play with. You can insert instructions straight to the processor.

There is a FTP command that you can use to transfer files to other computers assuming they have FTP software. Well, actually it's not a command but a program that runs in 16bit command line. But still typing FTP will run the program.

1. Share a folder on the destination computer.
2. Map a drive letter on the source computer to the new share.
3. Open the command prompt and use the copy command to transfer files.
You actually can skip step 2 and just use the unc path in the copy command.
One important trick that I've learned is that if an application somehow gets moved off of the screen boundries, you can get it back on screen by right clicking the application in the start bar. Click move, press any arrow key once, then use your mouse to drag the window back onto the visible desktop.

You can run an ftp or a rsync server on the one to upload files and then connect from the other machine using commnad prompt and transfer the files.

Assuming you have 2 Windows XP computers, just use the network setup wizard and then create shares on whatever folders or files you want to transfer, then simply copy and paste from one computer to the other.
