FW hard drive formatting
I just got a 40 gig firewire/USB 2.0 hard drive, and I'm having a problem with my formatting options. It came in DOS format, which would have been fine, except I get errors every time I copy files to it, because of special characters. I tried reformatting to Mac OS, but I was unable to share with my PC friends. How can I copy these files onto a DOS formatted disk with out going through 5000 files and manually removing special characters? Are there any advantages to Mac OS format, or Unix file system format? Thanks!

Dunno why it's not working. By the way did you leave that at Ryan's last night?
