Computer Learning, My Free Writing on Computer and Information technology

I still remember the early era of Windows XP (year 2002 until 2003), every system administrator knows what Partition Magic is. It used to be best disk partition software on earth. It was the property of PowerQuest until suddenly was acquired by Symantex.

This software is a damn great partition manager/disk partitioning software. But what i don’t understand is why symantex didn’t continue the development of this superb software.

Although i am currently a keen user of QParted, but this software will always be in my memory since this software was my great friend in my early days as an system administrator.
