    I am getting my macbook pro soon and I've been thinking about how to setup my xp/osx partitions. Right now I'm leaning towards getting macdrive and just having a 32 gb FAT windows partition, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this setup and whether 32 gb is too small? My logic is most of my files are things I could just write onto my mac partition and then if i needed them I could write back. I would prefer setting up NTFS but some of those programs look wayyy too complicated for me. Any suggestions from anyone who has their own set up?
