Sorry-- stick to NT, which actually cares who you logon as.  You may note
that Windows 95 not only allows you to skip the logon, it doesn't care what
username you use anyway, as there is NO file security, NO notion of
disallowing resources based on username, etc.  In fact, the ONLY thing that
Windows 95 ever does with Logon information is pass it along to other
machines across the network.
Windows NT, on the other hand, is at heart a real multiuser operating
system, which can be set up with all of these features, even in a
non-networked environment.  It's still not my favorite multiuser OS, but at
least it IS a multiuser OS.
