Hmm looking at it...
0000 0010 = 2
1011 1111 = 191
does anyone notice something odd here?
if you flip 2 backwards:
0100 0000 = 64
then invert it:
1011 1111 = 191

Is this some kind of strange inverse counter-logic that windoze uses?
its the only way 2 could possibly be 191, now that i think about it.
i wonder if it would show up as 127 if i tried only one FAT?
this is quite possibly the one of the strangest things i've ever seen
on a computer.
