I'd have to disagree with that. The only alternative (with NT4 anyway) is to use
FAT, and that would allow *anyone* to delete chunks of the operating system left
right an centre.

It is a good idea on servers that noone else has access to though, a small (RAID
0) FAT partition for the operating system and the rest NTFS (RAID 5)
