I wonder if you can format it as say mac extended journaled and then when windows sees it, format it as ntfs?

You can't. FAT32 is the best you can do, though you will have some restrictions. the 4GB file size limit for one. A lack of interoperability in Windows with other file systems is one of the major downfalls of Windows, IMO. Mac can read NTFS, but as yet can't format it. I believe, though i'm not sure, this is due to proprietary issues. Microsoft owns the NTFS format. Linux will not format NTFS either.
