If you use the Ubuntu Live CD to install, it has a "Guided" process that 
partitions your drive for you. All you have to do is tell it yes, and if 
you want to, alternatively move the slider bar it presents you, to one 
side or the other to increase or decrease the size of the partition it 
will install for you.

It's pretty much an automated process. It also sets up the boot loader 
and menu so you can select between Windows and Ubuntu at boot up.

That being said, there's no place like the Ubuntu Tutorials on the 
subject if you just want to learn how.
