Oh, I agree that it needs to get done and that LUA works (and that
vendors are getting better about it...but I also note some vendors are
only getting better about it after not dealing with XP SP2 properly, or
after word was released that Vista will be supporting LUA by default).

I just think that LUA isn't (and can't be) the total answer for the
industry as a whole, looking at all segments, as long as the default OS
install is setting us up for default admin. It's a major component, but
not the whole answer.

If you've gotten the impression I thought LUA was bad or didn't know how
to do it, I apologize; that's not the case.

One comment you did make that I wanted to respond directly to:

I have to laugh at this. In addition to my full-time duties with 3Sharp,
I'm also our sysadmin. We've got the IT infrastructure of a company
many, many times our size -- we almost have more servers than we do
employees! -- but because we're small, I'm pretty much all we've got. We
occasionally get some part-time help, or one of the other employees (or
partners) helps out for a specific project, but the thought of hiring
another company to set up our infrastructure just makes me giggle.

And it's really *not* pretty when I giggle. Trust me.
