Easy way to repartition?

Hello, I recently installed windows on my macbook and thought it would be a wise decision to partition the 60gig drive half and half for each os.

I noticed that I don't use XP as much anymore, and have realized how big of a mistake it was to partition half and half. Unfortunately It's not as simple uninstalling windows altogether, because I installed it in the first place to use programs that don't work in mac on there(so far it's only one, but It's making the difference of whether I uninstall XP or not), and I also have my 1 huge music folder split into two, one on each drive, and I can't drag one onto the other because there is not enough space.

My question is, is there an easy way to partition without reinstalling everything, or am I going to have to do that all over again?? Thank you.
 
I'd strongly suggest getting an external USB-2 or Firewire (or combo) drive for backups. Not only because backups are *VERY* important in general, but also because it's certainly the easiest way to do what you want now. You would then simply copy that music folder from the XP partition to the external drive (along with any other files you want to keep from that partition), let BootCamp give the partition back to the first volume and then bring back what you need from the backup. I know it's not what you asked for, but that's my answer. :)
