Just curious, How many use your MAC systems here with Admin privileges?

[QUOTE="Redbrick, post: 121206, member: 11288"] (I'm a relatively new mac user ~45 days old) I've been looking for ways to run applications without directly accessing my administrator's account privileges. I have my ~45 day old powerbook setup with 1 admin account for servicing the system and a limited account for myself for general usage. I am aware of the 'sudo' command, but would like to explore the other possibilities. In windows XP I can use either 'Runas' or a cool little utility 'sunas.' I wish all app developers would really take into account of systems with many users with limited privileges. ...so what are you playing with lately? :yinyang: [/QUOTE]
