You have to send me the drive, and I'll partition it and send it back :)

just 1 partition, again like everyone says :)

I have 80 GB maxtor and there is only 9 GB left.

I would kill myself if I partitioned it to several partitions when I started out :)

I smell Modus coming! :p

Since I authored a Dissertation on Partitioning in the past (and working on a rewite/AnandTech FAQ), I will only say that I heavily rely on partitioning, as I am attempting to multi-boot SE7EN OSes on one 40GB drive. Why seven OSes? Because I can.

Forgot to add: Folks with one OS may not have much incentive to partition, other than for organization's sake.
