How can I connect a old and a new computer to work together?

A old 200 MMx computer with no USB ports and a new computer with USB ports. Is there anyway of connecting both to work together. Especially transfering files etc and both to use the same printer.

You need a couple of network cards and a 'CROSSOVER' network cable (very cheap on ebuyer.com). You will need a free pci slot inside each pc. If the new pc has xp then setting up the network is easy using network setup wizard. if not come back here and ask how to set it up! You will also be able to share the internet connection
