Q: Why did Migration Asst. not delete the previous admin and info?
So I used Migration Assistant to transfer all of my info over to my Macbook Pro. I thought the old Admin would be deleted and I would be the only one, but the old Admin is still the main Admin on there. Also I noticed the addressbook has his info (address,email,etc.). Is there a way to delete the Main Admin? Or do I have to do a clean install of Snow Leopard again and transfer my info from my other Macbook to this after I do that? Any help would be appreciated.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 8GB Ram, 750GB 5400rpm HDD

Yes, do a clean installl and then use Migration Assistant as per part three of the instruction article.
Any existing installtion will necessarily have a user account.
If you use Migration assistant on an existing installtion, it will add to what is already there, as you have found.
