Quick question about admin account

Okay, so I'm the only one using the computer. Since the administrative account is hidden (except for safe mode) in WinXP Home, I made a second administrative account and changed my user account to a limited account. This way I can switch to the new administrative account if I have to do something with admin privileges and switch back to my user account.

When I go to make a password for the new administrative account, I get the prompt if I want to hide files from other users. What's the pros/cons for doing this with only one user?
 
from your limited account you won't be able to access files saved in my documents in the account with administrator privileges. now you see if it's a good or bad thing
