Really?!?!? Since 6.06, I'm dual-booting XP/Ubuntu on my desktop and 
Vista/Ubuntu. Windows being my main OS (shame on me), all my NTFS 
partitions are RW and I regularly write to them without a problem. 
Windows doesn't complain at all... I think this comes from the NTFS-3g 
driver which comes with Ubuntu...
