   Maybe it would work, probably need it in floppy emulation mode. (which means   
   more that it has no partition table, like bootable CDs for which emulation   
   mode was mainly used).   
      
   It would need some engineering though (FAT16, no partition table,   
   bootsector).

   Plug the stick in any OS that still supports SFN (iow true fat16, not vfat),   
   without mutilating it.   
      
   Technically all possible, and while not very practical it could be used as an   
   for easy "real metal" tests, even if you normally work in some VM solution.   
      
   Of course, it doesn't only affect development, but also the actually running   
   the products, which in time will be a bigger problem. OTOH dosbox might be a   
   viable solution for non-hardware linked programs.

   32-bit or 64-bit ?  (:-)
