Another advantage to creating multiple partitions or rather leaving space
available is you may play around with other OS in future such as NT, Unix or
Novell. So if you are a stable computer user you most likely wont need more
than 1 partition but if you like to tinker and are scared you might wipe
everything one day multiple is the way to go.
