alt Hacker NewsThere are a lot of LPE's in Windows too. Remember that it started out as a single user operating system, it took a long time to get software on board to not always running as admin.

Considering the amount of crazy shit even just user access allows you to do, by design, an LPE is not even really necessary.
Was NT ever single user? I thought they built it with network/multiuser in mind.
(I agree that maybe applications could’ve been built for 3.1/9x and expect a single user, but the os expects multiple).
