Yes the Ubuntu LiveCD comes with GParted which allows you to modify your partitions (System->Administration->GNOME Partition Editor). Also if you up for the challenge (if you know a little about linux) I suggest putting /boot, /, and /home all on different partitions, the reason for putting /home on a different partition is if you chose a different distribution you can use the same /home partition, the same for the /boot partition, Also don't forget linux needs a swap space (I'm not too sure about how to choose the right size, but I did 256Mb for 1 Gb of RAM). And now the primary reason why I replied to this thread, Starcraft can be played on Ubuntu 7.04 by using WINE (there are some display errors on battle.net but other than that it is perfect) and I think Microsoft Word works under WINE aswell.
