No. A windows formatted ipod can connect to a Mac, but not vice versa.

You could buy MacDrive which allows WIndows to mount a Mac-formatted drive. I don't know if it would be worth the cost just for this one use, though. You could buy an external hard drive for less than the cost of MacDrive, and use that external for moving your library to your netbook (and have a device for backup as well).
