As i am working my way through the Self Paced Kit for 270, i have noticed little differences in the way Windows behaves depending on if your machine is a member of a domain or not.

For example, tonight i have been looking at disk quotas. One of the tasks was to create a user account using control panel...user accounts (not via MMC). Because my laptop is a member of a domain (although not logged in to the domain) it brought up a completely different dialog to the local one normally presented.

See attached.

Any other things <pop> in to people's mind in this situation, so i can add it to the <difference> list?

Si (running for cover )
