Does anyone know of a way to get an Apple to see an external USB hard drive that is is formatted with NTFS?

FAT32 it if you can sustain the loss of large file support. Far as I know, CrApple will only see NTFS as read only unless you turn to 3rd party plugins/hacks like ext3 or fuse tools.

In Apples defense Microsoft wont even see a GUID journaled partition.
