sharing an attached USB drive via Linux Mint 10

Hi Guys,

I have a PC with Linux Mint 10 hooked up to my living room HDTV. I have most of my media on a 1TB USB drive that I have hooked up to it.

How do I share it? I want all the other machines, MS Windows included (2 xp, 1 win7)..

I figured sharing would be configured through Mint's control panel, but I don't see anything and it says sharing is not installed.

Best way to go about this? I know samba, but I don't see how to configure it via GUI and I'm assuming Mint, by now, has something in the gui for configuring sharing.
 
I'm more or less curious how to set it up via the GUI.. I find it hard to believe that Mint 10 wouldn't have some way to share folders on the network built into the GUI.
