When you first set them up, are they an Admin or regular?

I see a lot of flakiness in this regard. I had set up my local account as an
Admin account. And no matter what I do (turning off Admin, making me mobile,
making me Managed), I still have full admin rights on this machine... I am
listed as managed/mobile, but when I go to install software, my user/pass
works just fine.
