I agree with Chris here .. the only time I've wanted to transport
large files between windows and basically !windows (macosx, linux and
*bsd) they were ISO's of either regular CD's (works) or DVD's (doesn't
fit in fat32).
Happened to me on a couple of occassions that I wanted to do this and
had to resort to network transfers (non-optimal in those
circumstances).
