Finally Linux has got
full read-write open source NTFS support! Preliminary benchmarks show that the still unoptimized driver already sometimes twice as fast as ext3 and 20-50 faster than the commercial Paragon NTFS. Interestingly Captive NTFS, which uses the native Windows NTFS driver, fails all benchmarks with file loss.

apple helped???
From where do you get this idea? Check authors file.
(I hope this new NTFS Driver finds his way into the kernel)
Again, you hope wrong. It can't get into kernel, it is userspace file system (FUSE). And it belongs in kernel just as much as you would park your car in the air above the roof.

my friend told me about that a week ago. We discussed about Mac OS X 10.5 and the new NTFS support.
My friend told me, that a apple employee wrote an NTFS driver for the upcoming Mac OS X, and that the employee would release this driver to linux, too!
And now I'm reading this story about a NTFS driver for linux so my first thought was what my friend told me.

A week ago my friend told me that a apple employee is working on a NTFS driver for the coming MacOS X 10.5.
He also told me, that the employee would release the driver to the open source community, too.
And now I'm reading it here, pretty cool!
