so what size do i need for each? i plan on using kubuntu for my primary os, vista for my work, and 7 to "play" on

I have been planning on a vista/kubuntu x64 dual boot for some time now, but i think while I'm at it (now that I finally bought my new hard drives) that I might as well put the windows 7 beta on too to play with it some. a few things I need to know before I get started. I will be triple booting...
