yeah I remember the geekette that i originally called out here because my
new external woulnd't work, complained about the FAT that my pc was
formatted as............i remember her saying she preferred NTFS machines
and i had no idea (pretty much still don't) what she was talking about, but
at that point my Me machine would "see" the external, but would not allow me
to write to the drive until she did her bios magic on it. I just know that
those are 2 different ways harddrives are formatted and that's about all.
