The macbooks have optical s/pdif inputs via the analog 1/8" inputs on the side.  So, you'd have to convert digital formats and get the optical signal down to a mini jack.  Not even sure if the input is bit perfect or not.  Good luck...

I would suggest transferring DATs to your 722, and then copy the files to your mac via firewire.
