Re: OS X first timer - blank password

[Larry le Mac]

Boot off of the install disk and you can set/change the password.....
Doesn't say much for the security of OS X...
Why? It doesn't say anything. If one has physical access to a machine, its 
administrator is usually in big trouble anyway, regardless of the operating 
system.
School, office or whatever; a system CD, 15 minutes...
I can see plenty of security issues!!
