Windows 8 login and password question

[Salamander]

Is it possible to use the same login and password for a desktop and laptop - both with Windows 8 Pro?

Sure, I don't own a laptop but I run four different desktop builds that use the same login and password. Having the same OS doesn't matter.

Do you mean Microsoft account also?

The local user and the Microsoft account should be separate. You can set the local user/pass to whatever you want and change it as you see fit, the microsoft account is your singular master account with one username/password. Each PC you add to it will just add that PC to be associated with your account.

That's how it works for Office2013 and MS accounts, anyway.
