I think I recently had look-see at that. I'm just an old fart and I like a
command line. I was born using a command line and all these GUI's make me
sick.
You'd better have another look. This is a bare-bones WinXP
CD, and as such it offers a Command Prompt that gives you
full access to anything located in c:\winnt\system32, plus,
of course, any of your own 16- or 32-bit tools you care include.
And, as I said, you have no hassles with NTFS permissions
or with long file names.
I was born in the good old mainframe days and I know my
Command Prompt commands inside out. In 95% of all cases
I will run circles around anyone using GUIs for file manipulation.
Even the simple command
del /s *.tmp
is way beyond the capabilities of Windows Explorer.
No secret. I'm an an open and honest guy, just like Gov. Bush. Partition
Magic. Great Product. Buy it today. You won't regret it.
I've used PQMagic for many years, even though my current copy
is somewhat dated. Are you saying that the latest copy of PQMagic
lets you create FAT32 partitions > 32 GBytes?
AFAIR, the cluster size for a 32 GByte FAT32 partition is
32kBytes. Does this mean that your 131 GByte FAT32 partition
uses 128 kByte clusters? If so then I expect a great amount of
slack, especially in the Temporary Internet Files where my
average file size is around 700 bytes. Here is the amount of disk
space consumed by 2000 such files:
Space used on my NTFS partition: 1.4 MBytes
Space used on a FAT32 partition: 64 MBytes
Space used on your 128 GByte FAT32 partition: 128 MBytes
A tad wasteful . . .
