I do like the way that both Ubuntu, Mandriva and Gentoo happily recognised my NIC whereas Windows needs an additional driver off the mobo CD.
Support for FAT32 (vFAT) has been there for a long time in R/W support so I just tend to have a smallish (1gb maybe) FAT32 partition for sharing info between the Operating Systems.
