The demo sucks.

You can do quite a few operations in the Ubuntu format tool. You're just limited to creating FAT32 partitions, as Windows partitions go (you can resize or delete NTFS partitions.) If you want to get more NTFS partitions, you can always convert the FAT32 partitions or simply use the tool to get the desired free space and then use the Windows XP format tool to make the NTFS partitions.

get any old linux live cd that includes qparted or gparted as a package (which is most of them, but never hurts to check). then boot of cd and log in as root. then launch qparted or gparted and enjoy.

both programs are amazingly easy to use

Mandrake/Mandriva Linux comes with a very good disk partition manager. You could download the first CD of that from the Mandriva site.

Best price can be found online at a Torrent site. I got mine for free.

I didn't say you should do it. I just said the facts.

then its better to keep quiet in the first place

everyone knows you can get things through torrents (which is a retarded way to acquire pirated software, movies, music) but you can just pm OP or else threads just end up getting locked

because it is the most insecure?

you can jump on a torrent and EASILY find out the ip address of every single person on it

yeah, sure...it can be very fast, but anyone who knows enough stays away from them...its the n00bs way of pirating

I have heard that this is supposed to do everything that Partition Magic AND Norton Ghost does, but I have never tried it. SystemRescueCd
