Couldn't you just identify the user by their logon?


It's been a while but I don't think the old iMacs at my elementary school had individual user logins at the system level. For things like the reading test program there was a login I think but not for the whole machine.


Bingo!


You're assuming there were usernames and passwords. For consumer grade devices in decades past, that was not the norm.

Damn it!"


Fair point.


Haha :D
