Hello Ahelenia, I don't know much about MS, but AFAIK, it was MS who designed FAT32. I'll quote Wikipedia, although it may be incorrect: [ Microsoft designed a new version of the file system, FAT32 ] [ VFAT (for "Virtual FAT") after the Windows 95 virtual device driver ] If those two quotes are correct, I think the current manual page text is also valid.
