I have been running a home server Windows 2003, nothing fancy hosting websites, email server, media server.
I have a couple of pc`s networked and just share out folders so every computer can access certain files.

However, My housemate is defecting to Apple and getting a mac.

Before he gets it i want to ensure it will be able to access the shared folder in the same way. Im aware that they have different file systems and its not a simple case of plug in and go. (Ive never used a mac and havent a clue)

Has anyone already gone through this and found a simple solution?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks
