Youch!
>> My question is: When you format a drive w/ NTFS and you have other ones in
the same box formatted w/ W95 or DOS, can NT see these older drives? <<
Ralph's got the answer. One thing I'm not certain about is long filenames.
With NTFS you can have long file names, what happens when you want to share the
files via floppy and their destination is a DOS machine? I wonder if the
filenames just get truncated like they do when they come from a MAC.
