macgeekery.com — "The recent release of 10.4.6 brought about a new feature required for Boot Camp to do its magic - nondestructively resizing volumes. Apple updated the diskutil tool by adding the resizeVolume verb. Let's have a little fun, shall we?"

Because it isn't that useful of a feature for Windows to adjust partition sizes during an install for users. And as with most non-majority features, there are already lots of tools that abound that allow you to do this on an x86 machine with IDE or SCSI hard drives, thus filling niche needs with a niche market. It's just sad that Mac heads have had to wait this long for something like this to even exist. YAY for the switch to the vastly superior x86 architecture.<a class="user" href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=resize+partition">http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=resize+partition</a>

If you buy a Mac, and want to run Windows, you have to shell out big bucks for it ($200). Avoiding extra costs on an application you'll use like twice is just nice.

Kevin said he was having problems with Boot Camp on his new MacBook Pro. I'm glad he found the solution.Bring it on Alex! Falcon Northwest will lose to Apple...

Yellow Dog Linux is able to non-destructively resize partitions on PPC hardware; iPartition is another solution as well.
