from the native-support dept.

From the WinBeta subforum of reboot.pro:

I'm Pierre Schweitzer, one of the ReactOS developers. This is a free operating system that aims to re-implement Windows, but this time with an open source license.

ReactOS now supports reading files from NTFS volume. This was a long awaited feature people were asking for. And here it is.

You can see what I'm talking about on the three pictures [included in the fine article].

    except for the abomination of FAT

    FAT is a great file system for 360kB floppy disks. Which is what it was designed for. It wasn't designed for disks of several hundred gigabytes.

    Calling it an abomination does not do justice to the file system.
