Actually, I find it kinda cool that vista includes a
partition-shrinker that you can run right in the OS.  Just right click
on computer in the start menu, select manage, double click on storage,
double click on disk-management, right-click on your vista drive, and
select shrink volume.  Note that it might allow you to shrink more if
you temporarily disable swapping snapshots and delete your swap file.
It only took a few seconds on my computer  But it works well and if
something goes horribly wrong you can rely on MS for support :-)  And
you don't have to burn a linux livecd.  But it also only works on ntfs
drives.
