Maya and 3D Studio max compatibility?

Does anyone know if there is a way to make 3D Studio Max models compatible or importable into Maya or the other way around. I understand that both are now owned by the same company and that the 2008 versions may be compatible, but either way I would like to know. Thanks

1. they serve very different purposes but bother can make MDL files but I dont know any thing else
2. You can Export from MAX as 3DS files and use the Maya Bonus Tools Plugin to import into Maya. However the best would be using the FBX export/import into Maya. That works well overall
