usb flash drive

Yesterday I bought a sandisk 128 meg usb flash drive for $14 (on sale). I tried it on my wife's windows xp system and it worked just fine. Windows recognized the drive and set everything up without my having to do anythiong other than put the drive into the usb port.

I then tried it on my Linux system (Fedora Core 2) and again everything went well, but I did have to find out what device had been assigned to the flash drive and then issue a mount command. This is no big deal for someone used to Linux, but whould be a big issue for a casual user.
