I just meant that only Windows version supports sparse images -- on  
other platforms TrueCrypt images must be pre-allocated to the entire  
volume size (unless something has changed since last time I checked).  
If you're only ever exchanging small files that's not a big deal, but  
it's harder to use in general than an image with a 100 GB volume that  
grows/shrinks dynamically on disk as you add/remove data.
