Actually, I'll be there too: what I've done so far is repartitioned the 
disk so that there is a small FS for me and and a small FS for my wife 
[and there are corresponding *limited* user accts].  Next will be to move 
docs-and-settings for each of us to our respective FS's [if I can 
remember how..:o)] and then lock down c:\ and lock each of our personal 
FS's from each other [not that we need that, it is just to see if I can 
make it work! :o)].  THEN will come the fun to see if I can get the 
system to work at all.

I did learn one thing in setting up XP/Pro that I'm not going to make-the-
same-mistake again on the laptop: in my current system, I granted access 
explicitly to my limited acct for the things it needed to access... that 
was mostly a mistake...  on the laptop, I'm going to create a new group, 
"shared files" or some such, put add both of our accounts to that group 
and only give the *group* the additional access.
