That is how I started moving files between Linux & Windows also.
If you want to make your file transfer life even easier get Samba running on
your Linux machine. Once you have the Samba package loaded all you have to
do is edit the config file for it and you will be all set. Samba lets you
see the Linux machine on the network from a Windows machine as if it was
another windows machine. You can then go straight to neighborhood network or
Windows Explorer and drop and drag files and even create new directories,
rename and delete files, or open and edit them from your windows machine.
