Use the option of letting the vmware drive file auto-resize as needed, so start small.

In case you find the 160 becomes too small...
On my laptop I am doing a lot of video work, so I replaced the 160 Gb 5400 rpm with a 500 Gb 7200 rpm. Very easy to do. Bought the drive for $110, and did the switch myself in 15 minutes. The youtube video shows how.

I might be getting a 13" 160 GB  MacBook Pro

I'm thinking of using VMware Fusion to add at least one version of Windows or maybe more. This will hopefully be my travel machine that I want to use for development while away, so I'd like to get all I might need in it.

I usually don't have tons of music, movies, and stuff on my machine so I think the 160 GB should do.

What have other people done with their machines?

What OS(s) have you loaded - XP, Vista,Windows 7?

If Linux, what flavor might be the best/most common to develop for?

How did you partition it? What sizes for each?

What would you do differently if they did it over again (likely the most informative question/answer!)?

TIA
