Yet pointless, when legacy apps provoke most users into running as Administrators. Linux has XP's fast user switching, but it also has su, sudo, Xnest, and other really useful tools for multi-user operation. It lacks UAC, alas.

You can do a runas on shortcuts.. I do it all the time...

98, on the other hand, was never a stable system for me, and crashed fairly regularly. 3.1 wasn't bad for its time, but it had a tendency to "lose" programs at random.
