Default Changing Login screen displayed info - 06-08-2010, 11:37 PM

I apoligize if this doesn't belong here, but I intend to use this iMAC to feed my MACinDELL 10v.
I recently bought an iMAC that had been initialized and software, other than 'from the factory', had been installed. The Screen says "Mac OS X" and right underneath it "Mac Users Macbook Pro". Then the user name and password.
I want to change the "Mac Users Macbook Pro" entry for something more personal for me. Does anyone have any idea how to change "Mac Users Macbook Pro"?
Thanks,
VB Blue

That's just your computer name. Open the Sharing pane in System Preferences and change it to whatever you please.
