You might want to PM me, but, here are a few things...
If it's just files you want to copy over and your old computer has a usb drive, you could save them to a usb key. (My Documents>Edit>Select All (ctrl-a), Copy (ctrl-c) USBdrive>Edit>Paste(ctrl-V))
If old does not have usb, it might be easier to email some of them since new computers don't come with floppy drives.
Transferring applications is a whole other enchilada.

You can use migration software (http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=A0110110) and make the move a snap.

Favorites is relatively easy. The email will take some doing. What programs are you using? (you can PM me too, if you want)

If you're using Internet Explorer, go to Help>Search, type in "sharing favorites." This topic will give you the whole procedure for transferring them.
