FC5 and me

Yeehaa! I finally got FC5 installed. Better than that,
I got my laptop partitioned and setup the way I want:

on a 60gig:
20gig  windows(have too)
15gig  vfat (OS sharing, may convert to ntfs)
1gig   /swap
10g    /
9.9gig /home

I'm also using ndiswrapper from livna instead of
make'ing it myself. Not that I mind, but one less step
when I update the kernel.

So now its nice and clean. Before I start to junk it
up, anyone used ntfs drives in Fedora? I have a vfat I
was using to share files, but if the NTFS support is
decent I'd rather use that than vfat.

Also, looks like Gnome is quite a bit faster than KDE.
Anyone else see the same? Before it wasn't that
different for me.
