Vista B2 Admin Account

I installed B2 and it apparently set up an Adminstrator account automagically. So what's the password?
I set up my account using my usual user name. I set the Password to 'password' and the optional hint to "The password is password." Following that I wasn't allowed to login with bad ID or password. Is Vista just annoyed that I chose 'password' as a password? I wiped it and reinstalled using a more robust password and then I could login.

I remember seeing a post that stated that there was no Admin password on that account unless you set it after the install took place but I could be wrong as far as the B2.

The password is blank - literally nothing there :o)
