Are you looking for a system that is vulnerable? If so, you might get more kicks out of windows. I urge you to use a normal account for everyday use of your system. This gives you a lot of protection against break in attacks, against programs that misbehave and it will prevent the end user to make changes to critical parts of the system. Doing it this way, gives YOU control over the computer. Using your computer with the root account, puts EVERYONE in control of your computer (programs, virus, hackers,...) A real root login is only required in very few cases. In general if you want to change a critical part, just do su -c 'critical command here' and the system will ask for the root password, execute the command and go back to the user.
