Default Importing and exporting

I have got a problem in that I want to export my contacts file to a laptop.
I am not sure how to do this, because new laptop does not have a floppy disk
drive. Both my PC and laptop take Nero Burning ROMs though, and I wondered
whether this might not be the way to go! If anyone on the Internet has done
it could they post it in simple instructions as I am not very advanced.

Default Importing and exporting

Export your contacts to a .csv and just email them to your laptop.

If the PST file is not large you can make a copy and email that to yourself.
If that is not feasible and you have a USB thumb drive and usb ports on both
machines you can copy it onto the USB drive.
