Just thought I'd mention that while Windows can't access Ext2 volumes on its own, it's possible to read/write Ext2 (and Ext3/journaled) volumes in Windows NT/2000/XP with the free Ext2 IFS. I use it to let XP see my Ubuntu partition (Ubuntu can see XP's NTFS one on its own). Makes transferring files easy in a multi-boot situation.
My USB mem stick for transferring XP or Ubuntu to/from OS X (when I'm too lazy to rig my Ethernet cable) happens to use FAT32. Having a variety of file system choices to choose from is good! :)
