I know this doesn't apply to our PPC Macs, and that this is also "old
news", but it was something I was unaware of until today. I knew that
modern Macs can read-only Windows NTFS volumes, but I thought that to
write NTFS you needed 3rd-party software such a NTFS-3G, Tuxera,
Paragon NTFS, etc. The post below from over 3 years ago shows how to
toggle a native OS X preference to enable native OS X NTFS read/write.
It looks like it's a little bit of a hassle, done by individual volume
rather than just a global system-wide enabling, but it's native, and
free, for Snow Leopard onward:
