Considering that Apple would very much like its machines to be used in public, lab-type environments, this does not speak well to their security in such situations.

Any IT manager who allowed any Tom, Dick, or Mary to create an Admin account is only asking for trouble... and this one got it.

Isn't it interesting that everytime Apple releases new OSX Macs the FUD spreaders create big stories out of things that are very little to worry about.

I don't see where admin accounts were created, merely local user accounts. Perhaps you see something I do not?
