I just like throwing out non-factual information to keep people

was in fact FAT32. I was sure it was NTFS v5, but now I'm not so sure
because I have a dialog in front of me saying that it's FAT (but can I
REALLY trust a dialog from Microsoft?).

Yes that's one article stating the FAT32 is limited to 4 GB file size.
I think that is really funny though as FAT16 allowed up to 2 GB for the
file size. So that really wasn't much of an upgrade in that regard.
Since some of you don't sound like you trust Microsoft to tell the truth
about this here is another source.

If you want any more information I suggest a google search for NTFS &
check out the links at the bottom of the NTFS article at wikipedia.
