You can save the photos to an SD Card and just put it right in a computer.

Cool. But what's an SD card?

You've never had to use an SD card? Mobile phones use them all the time. Anyway:

So its the same as a USB card? I have used one of those once. Another name for them is flash memory?

Not quite, you can get a USB adapter that you can put the memory card into and then connect the USB part to your PC. Probably should have directed you better:

The Wii uses SD cards for memory too. Flash memory is essentially memory with no movable parts like a USB memory stick, SD card, or any other type of memory card.

So to get the photos from the 3DS to the PC I can use the included SD card but I need to also buy a USB adapter?

Probably, unless you have a SD card slot on your PC/laptop. You can usually get both in a bundle-type deal so it shouldn't be too much of an extra expense.
