If the Deluxe Board 5.4 is the same as we used at my last job, it should
work fine. RTF transfer of stuff will work fine; anything more complicated
and you will probably want to do the transfer stuff on the Mac side using
Apple File Exchange (just ask your Mac connection; he'll probably know what
it is. 
BTW, Mac and PC disks, low and high density, are of disparate formats; the
drives are definitely not interchangeable. Otherwise, Mac owners would not be
paying >$200 US for drives internal and external.
