The advantage of having a small C: partition is that when Windows bites  
the dust and you have to reformat and re-install it, you lose only what  
was on that partition, not all your data which should have been on a  
separate partition. Having a completely separate disk is preferable but,  
if you only have one disk, it  makes sense to partition it. The C: drive  
should only have the Windows OS and program files for which you have the  
original installation disks/files so that you can re-install them.
