Seconded here, as I have done in other threads as well.  One thing I have not been able to test yet, does 7 eliminate the 255 character limit on file names?  Of all things Microsoft does wrong versus right, IMNHO this limitation is absolutely unforgivable in 2010.

And, nine pages to this thread?

Really?  :confused:  Besides Reiser most other modern file systems have the same "limitation" (ie. EXT4, HFS+, JFS, ZFS, etc.).  Not sure why anyone would want 4000+ character filenames anyway.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Nothing wrong about that but I think that it would be better to put that description in a "comment" field like it's done on AmigaOS files :-)

Or use meta tags/information to store more information.  I've never gotten close to the 255 limitation on my PC or Mac so I guess I don't understand what the big deal is.
