As long as you take the time to learn what you're doing, and don't try forcing the Mac to be a PC running Windows, you'll have a pleasant experience.
You will find that there is a small learning curve, but its very intuitive, and you will actually find that some operations in both the PC world and the Mac world are very similar.
Just turn on Windows file sharing, and you shouldn't have any problems.
I talk to PC's all the time. Its a lot simpler getting a Mac to talk and play nice with PC's than it is going from the other direction, frankly.

I know I need one, am PC based but fancy dipping a toe in Mac waters. Is there any point in me getting a 12" G4 Powerbook as a solution to both or am I opening a can of worms trying to get my PC desktop and a G4 to talk?
That's three cliches in one posting....
