Mac OS X Users

Each person who can log in to your Mac has an account on the computer, and is referred to as a user. If you’re the only person who logs in to your computer, you’ll need only one user account.
 
In Mac OS X, there are administrator and non-administrator users. Administrators have access to most areas of the computer. They can install and delete applications, change system preferences, and add and delete other users. Non-administrators have access to their Home; they can open applications in the Applications folder; and they can change system preferences that affect only them.
