Just for info's sake...

According to this:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/ddk/ifskit/ServerIFSKitOrderinfo.mspx

$899 + S&H (and any local taxes)

And also see:
http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/

For the free version - information obtained through public sources to 
create "ntifs.h" and an example IFS.

And don't forget the Arla guys - they did some work using Cygwin (but I'd 
bet the same work could have been done with MingW32).
