So yell at MicroSquish...  :-P

Seriously, since it's supposed to show you the _operating system_
boot choices, I felt FAT32 was too non-descriptive - it's just
the disk format, after all.

And, this should be good for a few years, maybe forever, since
Win98 is highly likely to be the last Non-NT version of windows
(and NT has it's own native disk format, NTFS).
