But what about sharing files from the same location on disc on a dual

Linux can read and write to all types of FAT, and read NTFS partitions
(I'm not sure what the current status is on writing to NTFS). There are
also some programs and drivers for accessing Linux's ext2/3 filesystems
from NT family Windows (NT, XP, Vista)


You can get NTFS drivers from Paragon which work well. They do OS X
ones as well and both are RW.


The NTFS-3G project has matured quite recently (this year) and is now
being included in quite a few distributions as a read/write NTFS driver.
