My view may be over-simplistic, but if she's mostly using this to
transfer files and not for applications, I'd have her buy a cheap PC,
like in the $4-500 range, set up a hard drive as a shared resource and
go to lunch... There are a number of simple utilities that let either
type of computer read drives formatted by the other and they're much
simpler technology than the emulators.

Given the price of hardware, emulators and such are problematic and
aren't really cost-effective, IMHO.
