The short version is that it's a bad idea to be running as an admin as
it is less secure. Better to have a separate admin account with a unique
and hard-to-guess name (not 'admin'!) and a good secure password.

Morning all,
I’ve just taken delivery of a refurb MacBook Pro and I’m about to
set it up. I’ve never really known if it makes sense or not to make
the primary user (i.e me), also the admin account. What’s the group
wisdom on this?
Ta
Phil
