i think its actually a little bit more complicated than it used to be. one of those machines needs to have internet sharing turned on.

It doesn't need to have Internet sharing on - if one is in target mode.
And even then, it's just giving it a 169 IP, to share off the one it got from the Router/modem.
TargetMode is just going to give you a "disk drive" to hunt down your files and copy them over quickly -
no need to have it running with a GUI.
The only thing you'll probably have to do is authenticate some of the files you want to drag over with
a password. Target Mode via FW (or USB if they are both Intel) is the way I'd go.
