Just be aware, give Apple about 5 years of combatting security threats and
you'll be where MS is today.  And if M$ frustrates you, I can't imagine what
Linux will do....  Yes it's a great OS, but if something goes wrong, you'd
better be able to work the command line with efficiency.

I'm so fed up with M$ that I will never buy another computer with a Windows
OS on it.  Period.  No Exception.  If my Larry (my
partner) or my Mom ever need a new one it will be either Linux or Apple.  I
will NOT deal with another M$ piece of (expletive deleted).

You only have 3042 thins on your annoyance list?  How did you fix the other
2483?

How do you access the uber-administrator account.  Is that the default
account that Windows creates on installation and you use to create
additional accounts?  Or does it require some secret code or key combination
to get to?  What was the tweak you used to make it your normal account?

First off, don't get me started on Microsoft... It will get me talking about
things like, many years ago I watched for a fix for a "known issue" in
MS-Word that stayed a "known issue" for several years and different versions
before I finally gave up waiting for a fix.  And I'll cut myself short and
not list the other 3,042 things I'd like to add. 

About the "Run as Administrator" in Win7 (I'll not even mention the "V" word
that rhymes with Mista, otherwise I may have to mention half of the above
mentioned gripes).  Hmm, I'm not sure where to begin...  Anyway, a Win7
Administrator account does not let you do everything, and even less if you
do not use the "Run as Administrator" option.  Although you can do more with
what most people refer to as a "Super Administrator" account than you could
with a regular "Administrator" account.  Confused yet?  The "Super
Administrator" is the first Administrator account created on Win7, usually
during Win7 installation.  The easiest way to tell which one you are using
is by exploring to C:\ then right-click in the root of "C:" and see if you
have the option available to create a text file.  If option is not available
then you have a "less than Super" Administrator account.  I don't know a lot
about the limitations, but I don't care because I did a registry patch on my
Win7 test partition that makes all Administrator account "Super Admins".
Took me awhile to find that one.  I also practically disabled the UAC, so I
guess I'm not very secure according Microsoft, but I'm happy.
