PC to MAC via ZIP.
Yes - this is do-able - I have just done it the other way around. We are a
PC based department, but our FACSort is linked to a MAC and we acquire (and
analyse) under CellQuest. However, until we get another MAC we are jammed
for data analysis - so I transfer to the PC via the ZIP drives linked to
each (got to keep down the amount of data on the MAC hard disk), archive to
network (PC) storage and analyse under WinMDI (results entirely comparable
to CellQuest) as a backup analysis facility.
However, I believe it is difficult to put files back on the MAC and have
them recognised as a BD file readable by CellQuest. I'm sure somebody out
there has some software which will do just this (make the files
recognisable by CellQuest). If you track it down then let me know, please.
