Brent,

Strangely enough, I assumed that the OP was a Windows user, which is after
all more likely.

At Apple iPod there was a poll a few years ago. The ratio was about 3:1
(IIRC!) PC:Mac. It might be useful to run that poll here.

But this is irrelevant. All modern OSes support multiple users on the same
computer.

Apologies if I misread your comment. ;)
