Good point, Wes. Small company, to this point I install, get the job done, uninstall. Only forced to use it a couple of times. (Once, to combine a couple of NT partitions under 2G, it automagically turned them into FAT32 partitions...oops).

So that would by $100 per system where others are licensed per technician so $595 may be very cheap. Just make sure you read the license agreement. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 2:18 PM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: **Partition size change** I use a similar utility called Partition Manager, by Paragon (www.partition-manager.com), it's a German product and I find it very simple and effective. Easy to resize, separate or join partitions. Price tag is very reasonable, somewhere under $100US. David A. Florea, Sys Admin Private Consulting Group Inc.

And it has a hefty $595 price tag. Just an FYI.
