Actually you can go back,
either by; Backups, or 3rd party software like Partition Magic.

However NTFS has a lot of advantages;

Paging File System [Dont need to run Scandisk at start (or the WinXP/2K Equiv) on bad shutdown]

Enhanced Security Options [Allow certain users to stay to certain folders/files]

Better Speed [Files in Tree rather than the FAT32 conventions of largest free block]

Smaller Clusters [Less wasted space on HD [usually about 100-300mb per Gig!]

Also increased Seek speed thanks to the file tree. [a side effect of the tree mentioned above]

smile Havnt looked back yet myself, havnt used my 98 partition for over a year, thinking of deleting it smile
