I don't see any reason why making severals partitions for/home/var etc. on a workstation! I have two disks which are mounted as a raid0 and ReiserFS on top of it and I mount the whole thing just as/. This way I never have to worry about partition sizes, having not enough space left on/home but a lot of free space in/var... The only exception is/boot which I formated as ext2 as recommended averywhere. Raid0 with ReiserFS really rocks! A cheap way to get a double-speed Harddrive....
