134         <li>Derek J Witt
135                 <p>I commend you for this project. I am currently using this on my XP NTFS
136                 partitions and I am impressed that I can actually move, edit, and remove files
137                 and directories with no apparent ill effects. This is very nice indeed.</p>
138                 <p>I initially was skeptical because it uses wine and parts of ReactOS
139                  (I have messed with this OS a few times), but you have proved me wrong. I have
140                 noticed no lag on my system.  I do notice the initial mounting process does
141                 take slightly longer than the Linux-NTFS project. But, once I'm past that, it's
142                 quite transparent.</p>

146                 <p>Just wanted to drop you a note and say &quot;Excellent work!&quot;</p>
147                 <p>I just installed captive and it worked as advertized right out of the
148                 rpm.  Thanks, I've been holding off recompiling my kernel until NTFS is
149                 supported out of the box for Redhat.  Now I don't have to bother.</p>
150                 <p>Thanks again and keep up the great work.</p>
