Parallels Desktop for Mac is the first solution for Intel-Macs that give you the flexibility of running Windows or Linux on a Mac simultaneously without rebooting.

Answer 2

The easiest partition manager to use, in my opinion, is GParted:

It has the ability to resize partitions, which is what you want to do; shrink the NTFS partition (C:), and format the remaining free space to NTFS as well.

Best of all, there is nothing to install; it runs from a LiveCD.
