Forgive me, but this is simply not true.  There is a fully functional NTFS module available for read-write support in CentOS 5 (if you build your own kernel), and I haven't actually looked at the CentOSplus kernel yet.

NTFS is obviously not the file system of choice for a Linux machine, but it is far from useless.
