i think ill just create a new account, and copy my vmware machines
from the Documents folder.

i have done this. however, one oddity remains -- even tho my new,
replace account is an Admin, i dont have full rights over the old-
admin account's folders. they are locked, give me warnings, etc.

maybe this is windoze thinking, but if i am an Admin, shouldnt i have
full permission over everything?


thanks!
