Oh there are probably a few dumb things that need admin but most don't. I
setup a number of machines for my boss's kids where I set them up as just a
user or some as a power user, the machines are constantly coming back
completely riddled with spyware, virus, trojans, you name it.
But don't believe me, google on business computers and how spyware is such
a problem for them, most business users are not running as admin. And of
course you know that no business has ever had desktop systems infected by
email virus that the user has to manually click on to activate..
