Don't know if a HP has a network port; if it does, one workaround would be
to dump your data to a PC (=wintel) or PC-network (resp. peer-to-peer
connection or client to server) and burn the data on CD from a PC. The macs
can then read the CD-ROM with no problem regardless of platform origin.
Please ask if you need more help
