Why is the Administrator account disabled by default?

Having the Admin account disabled allows a layer of safety. It is for your own good to leave that admin account disabled...
It is also for protection against yourself. If you are full admin, and make a bad install, or delete something you should not, your screwed. That is why as well.

Ok, so now on my Win7 box.
I have 2 accounts:
Administrator (which I dont use and is enabled
And My account, which is also an administrator
I definitely see where you are coming from now. Why have 2 administrator accounts, right? But I just can't see my self switching to a Limited Account. But definitely disable the Administrator account.
Ok thanks,
so then why NEED the full administrator account then?
