| Right now there are far more apps available (and worth installing) for Mac OS 9 than OSX. The majority of OS9 apps take up more space than the ported *NIX apps. I would say at least 50/50 or wieghed more in the direction of OS9. Then again, if you don't like having to hose your drive to resize partitions later (when you have more OSX data) you could just give most of to OSX in preparation. Personally, I am 50/50. X *requires* about the same amount of VM as OS9...maybe a little more. But, it will *USE* a shitload since it is a much more full-featured (and faster) VM system than 9 has. If you install X on a small partition you better have AT LEAST 128MB on your system.
