I am using Vista Home Premium, I only have one user active. When I initially
start up the computer, at the Welcome Screen there no option to "Switch" or
select a user. When I resume from "Sleep" there is an option to switch user.
If I select switch user, it shows the same user as when the system started.
Is this normal behavior?

Brink,
Thanks for your answer but I still do not understand why there is a switch
user option when there is no user to switch to. I understand that when I
awake from sleep it return to the user that put the machine to sleep but if
there are no other active users, why offer a switch? See redundent.
