Trying to set up 2 user accounts on 1 computer?

Question

Just got a new 80g ipod for my birthday yesterday, my wife has a 4g nano that is already installed ont this computer, how do I add a second user acct to the same computer?? I checked a couple of sites that told me to "hold down the shift key" also do I need to download the program again??
thanks

Marty,
First off, you can both use your iPods on the same account if you want to. You can set up your iPod and her iPod to sync the same thing or different things off the same library. For example, you might have your 80GB iPod sync the entire thing, where as your wife might have a Smart Playlist, that limits the size to under 4GB to sync to her iPod.
But if you want to set up anothe XP account, please use the Start -> Help option on your computer to read up about user accounts. That sort of instruction is beyond the scope of this group.
Here is some additional helpful Apple articles. Enjoy!
