Terry....oops!  In my frenzy to answer your question (I don't 
use ntfs, I use eithet fat or vfat) I forgot the reason I 
have never used NTFS.  It's not writeable from Linux.  At 
least with the regular drivers.  I understand that there's an 
alpha driver available that will write as well as read NTFS, 
but I know nothing more than that about it.  Sorry
