LOL - his stupidity is amazing. Most people have no idea what a file format 
even is. Poll 100 random people on the street and ask them about exFAT and 
watch the look on their face.

People who do understand file formats can format external drives however 
they want without feeling "left out in the cold" whatever the hell that's 
supposed to mean.

Then how come turdv didn't choose the alternative product? He's a full time 
Windows user as is everyone else in his house. "Windows is the right choice 
for my daughter".

This reminds me of a Relf classic.

Heh.  One doesn't need to be a pro, to know how stupid that is...
