You can, using a network, transfer to a MAC system by placing it
on a network drive, from a PC (in my case anyway) to a
MAC-accessible drive, then running FACS Convert. (either a B-D or
Cellquest - related product maybe?) That's what I had to do with my HP
Consort 32 -generated data (on a bernoulli) when I needed to use it on
my new MAC FACS station.
