Windows 98 does have USB support. My question is though - why not transfer via an 
ethernet cable? They're quite cheap and will work well. In fact a length of crossover 
cable between two PCs will cost less than a memory stick. 

I don't know if there's a size limit but it should be able to handle memory sticks 
up to 40GB. I remember using compact flash cards with a USB reader on my 98 PC.
