Why not create a FAT volume on the USB drive and zip to it?

This is my only data backup and I worry tht should my Thinkpad "go south" I will have no way to copy my data to another computer which will only be available as a Windows machine.  Is the only solution to create the FAT32 and keep duel copies of everything? Will I be able to read/write to the FAT32  (eCS 1.2R)?
