Depending on the version of the operating systems, you may just be able to network the two computers and enable file sharing, allowing direct transfer. However, you must be sure that the PC programs involved can read the data -- it may be necessary to save the Mac data in PC format.

Any removable media should be readable by both if you use the correct formats -- for instance, burn all CDs as ISO 9600 format (or the one with the funny name), as that is the standard for PCs. The Mac will read and write them all.

Much easier if you were going the other way.....

You can get an external CD writer and use DragonBurn (or something similar) -- it runs under OS 9 as well as OS X, so unless you are dealing with a truely ancient machine, that should do it.

Biggest problem may be software -- not all PC programs can see Mac data!
