Administrator account disabled by default

I believe I read that the administrator account was disabled by default. The Measureup Exam indicates it is the Guest account. Clarification???

    Nevermind, the MS site indicates the following:

    The administrator account does not appear on the Windows Vista Welcome screen

    SYMPTOMS
    You notice that the administrator account does not appear on the Windows Vista Welcome screen.

    CAUSE
    By default, the following conditions are true in Windows Vista:
    • The built-in administrator account is disabled.

    • The built-in administrator account cannot log on to the computer in safe mode.
    Note In some cases, Windows Vista may determine, during an upgrade from Microsoft Windows XP, that the built-in administrator account is the only active local administrator account. In this situation, Windows Vista leaves the built-in administrator account enabled. Additionally, Windows Vista puts this account into Admin Approval mode.

    Unless I am misunderstanding something, it must be an error in the Measureup Exam.
