Is any recent version of Windows able to format Fat32?  My XP installs
aren't able to.  And XP was released in 2001.

I understand that FAT32 is simple to support, but it was useless for
drives 8 years ago, let alone today. If TinySC is supposed to be used
with nothing but small USB flash drives I can understand. But if it's
supposed to work with real hard drives, I'd really like to see support
for NTFS (use a third-party driver), HFS+ and even EXT2/3.

Will the touch be able to format drives on its own?  Most consumers are
going to have a huge problem with this.  They'll simply want to connect
the drive they've already got music loaded onto (which is formatted in
NTFS if they're Windows users) and plug it in. 

Very big oversight if there's no plan to add additional format support
in timely firmware updates.
