Move any applications that don't need to be on the boot partition to a 
remote partition.  Consult help and see how you can move your iMovie, 
iPhoto, and iTunes data files to a remote partition.  If your browser 
has a preference setting for cache file location, put your browser 
cache files on a remote partition (for now, users of Safari are out of 
luck here...  you can put the Safari application on a remote partition, 
but the browser cache files will be on your boot partition).
