1 star rating doesn't look good

I'm still using the one I got on Black Friday with no problems, its all plastic construction isn't a big deal to me. I guess some people really need metal flash drives to endure normal usage.

I paid $19.99 for the 32gb today at Office Depot. Might look at a different one.

I read the 1 star complaint. The user is complaining about the default FAT32 not supporting files larger than 4GB. The user then complained if converted to NTFS is is not supported on OS earlier than Windows 2000 or OSX. This has nothing to do with the device. The user might as well complain that the device is also slow when used on a USB 1.0 computer.
I am more concerned about the mention of plastic parts.

Might want to look again, I think that was the three-star review. There were two one-star reviews, complaining about a dud and a "display model".

I looked at it earlier and there was only 2 reviewer and the average was 1 star. Now I see 4 reviews and the average went up to 2.5. But then again, this is the same website that made me call their 1-800 number in order to get the free shipping that was advertised all over their site.
