Hrm.

I don't know about other distributions, but Ubuntu has excellent support
for NTFS partitions by way of FUSE.  As I understand it, FUSE works on
OS X, now, too, so NTFS might be an option to use there.  However, I use
ext2/ext3 on everything, even drives that I use under Windows.  I use
ext2ifs to read/write such drives under Windows.
