Almost all for me as well. However, I did come across one brand new Sony laptop with XP on it that was NTFS. It was odd though. It has a 20 Gig HD, and there were two NTFS partitions, each 10 Gig. Everything was installed on the first partition, so adding Linux was as simple as blowing away the unused NFTS partition. Weird. Blue skies...
