Linux FS Question

["Tim O'Brien" <tjobrien@Traveller.COM>]

Under the FAT16 system when a file is deleted, it's only removed from the
FAT. Though the file appears gone, it still remains on the drive. 

When something is removed on a Linux box using the rm command, is the file
gone for good or is it just removed from view while it remains on the disk? 

Thanks,
Tim
