I'm not sure if anybody has heard about this project, but they've had a complete success in the ability to read, write, modify, etc NTFS Filesystems through Linux and other free operating systems.
I myself have been waiting for this feature for quite some time, and now thats its here, I can just about switch over full time :D
I'm sure this is a strong sway for a lot of people too.
Just thought I'd let everybody know :)
