Character encoding Mac vs. Windows

A friend has a text file on his Mac that contains the following line

Akamai's profits

When I open the same file on Windows, it reads

AkamaiÕs profits

Does anyone have a guess which encoding is being used here or where else this difference may stem from?

Probably Mac OS Roman.

Mac OS Roman has ’ at character position 0xD5, and ISO 8859-1 (and Windows CP1252) have Õ at that position.
