How much space should I leave for my Windows 7 partition?

I'm setting up a complete .NET development environment on my Macbook Pro.

I'm using Visual Studio 08 team suite, SQL server 2008, MS Office and other tools (like FinalBuilder, RegexBuddy, Beyond Compare).

How big should my windows 7 (beta currently) partition be? Will 100GB be enough?

NOTE: I wasn't sure if this was programming related enough for SO, so I'll just let the community decide if this question is relevant.

Solution

  • You described my laptop. 100 GB would leave approx. 40GB for Users directory.
