[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1556627"] Just in the interest of accuracy, if you choose to use MA, at the FIRST boot of a new system, it will create just one account into which it will migrate the data. I'd say 75% or more of new users miss the message and the opportunity to do so, but there is a way to avoid two users. [URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796"]Here[/URL] is the article from Apple on MA, look under the third triangle bullet item, "Transferring with the Setup Assistant that appears when your Mac starts up for the first time." As I said, a lot of folks miss the opportunity and establish their own account before letting MA do its thing. [/QUOTE]
