    Recommendations on a program that can non-destructively resize my partitions? I have the main OS and a data partition. Now feeling need to increase size of OS partition due to new apps installed.

    I see that Drive Genius is still PowerPC... Any others I should look into that works well?

    Thanks,
    Arch

    Hmm, interesting option... Is there a good web page with instructions on the use of the command?
