Yeah, NTFS is an excellent filesystem. Unfortunately many of its features such as streams and reparse points are rarely used.

Besides, you have to compare like with like. When NTFS was introduced, most Unix systems were still on something like UFS. If you wanted a journalled filesystem back then (and weren't on IRIX), you had to pay cash for VxFS.
