   Transaction support is not the same as the rollback in case of a =
system crash.  Transactions provide quite a bit more.  See =

  It sounds the same to me with the difference being that they exposed =
the
  functionality to programs now so it can be monitored by something =
other than
  the OS. W2K NTFS allows the OS to roll back a transaction that failed, =
it
  just did it automatically.
