With Windows, I only use Partition Magic. Very intuitive and easy to use,
and it has never failed me (yet). Supposed to work well with Linux fs's,
too. There are free solutions of course, but I've not tried any as PM does
the job for me quickly and simply, and as such is well worth the price. But
certainly some people enjoy the challenge of getting a free partition
resizer solution to work, which is cool too. Just backup and verify first,
else know thy spouse's reaction well, should her Win98 partitions get
forever toasted. (When I F-up bad, my beloved of 24 yrs treats me to that
particular two or three-day silent icy-cold glaring stare. YMMV. ;-)
