A Technical Query

So, after years of enduring Microsoft based PCs and laptops and the inevitable systems crashes, I have defected to Apple and am the owner of a Macbook. Now, as a curmudgeon, any change is almost by default a bad thing, but I have to say this machine I'm currently typing away on is quite good. And is growing on me. 

The only downside I can see is that it is going to be a struggle to get it to work in conjunction with my Creative Zen MP3 player - that is, inevitably, Windows loving. Now I know Windows can be run on a Mac using something called Bootcamp, but before I go through all the hassle of doing that, I was wondering whether anyone knew of an easy way to get an MP3 player to work on a Macbook.

And before any "comedians" suggest buying an I-pod, I'd like to point out that such a plan is not an option for me. I pissing hate I-pods...
