Hi,
I apologize if this is a silly question, but I just don't know much about this. I have an older iBook operating the first version of OS X, and no way to get info on or off it as it has no drive for CDs or anything. I'm wondering whether a flash drive will be compatible with it and my PC? The PC is running Windows XP, fwiw. The iBook does have the needed USB port so I figure a flash drive will work; just don't know if that means trips to Kinkos to use the Mac there at $1million/hour or if I can then bring the flash drive over to the PC and access the files?
I've considered just trying to plug the flash drive in but as I already have some files on it from the PC I thought it better to ask before possibly corrupting everything.
Thank you for any advice!
