Very odd that they don't mention being able to shrink or grow existing partitions- just delete/add them. That's usually what "non-destructive partitioning tools" do.

Skip this, buy iPartition (which CAN actually grow/shrink partitions) and save $6. OR, don't spend a penny and use a livecd that has gnu parted on it, and can handle more filesystem types.

You know, the last time I checked version 1.1.1 works just fine with a PPC. Why upgrade? The app costs $49 then they come out with an update by the way I never even knew they had updated it from 1.1.1 but now it's at 1.5.2? and they want $25 for it and they even say it is a minor update. Whos stealing here? Software companys don't want us to pirite their software but when they hit you up over and over again for no good reason, oh...greed I guess it is called...well, in that case I won't be doing it but I don't blame them that do. Take care of your customers not your selves. I for one will continue to make due with version 1.1.1. I guess Im just tired of everyone sucking me dry everytime I scratch my nose.

This thing screwed my whole 160gb drive! after i made the 2nd partition it began to be troublesome and within 3 days my disk wouldn't even mount. Even disk warrior couldn't repair it. I'm bringing to my friend's dad's computer store in a couple days, it better be okay >:(

DiskStudio is a great tool. It's safe, fast and simpel to use. It's great to be able to change a partition or volume without losing all of your data.
A program like this will usualy not be used a lot, but if you need it, you can trust it and you'll be ready in no time (which ofcourse depends on what you want :-) ). Great!
