All us old-timers remember the old Macs that all came with floppy drives as standard equipment, but to read a Mac floppy on an Amiga you needed a program called CrossMac.

And if you are a real-old-old-timer (back when 'DD' or Double Density floppies came out!) you will remember the Mac used to use variable-speed floppy drives that needed special hardware to read on an Amiga (A-Max and another one). Of course, the original Amigas shipped with DoubleDensity drives, took years for the Mac to catch up!
Not more than 5 minutes ago I just transferred some programs from a Mac to an A4000T using Mac format disks and CrossMac; I was surprised to see this thread! I usually get Iomega Floppy Plus USB drives for the Macs since they also can read almost all types of flash media.
