While this is true for the built-in tools, you "can" use third party
tools (or older MS ones?) to make a larger partition and it will
work fine.  I never trusted that theory myself since I would rather
have the security and convenience (and journaling) of NTFS.

(If I wanted to run Win98, I'd do it in a MSVirtualPC2004 session
on a NTFS drive inside a virtual drive file...)
