passwords

[msimonet at ydl.net]

Dear members of the list,
I am writing this message in order to get some help. I recently bought an Apple 
computer with YDL preinstalled, I was provided my username and user password by 
the company but not the root password. Thus, I don't have root privileges in my 
own personal computer. 
Does anybody know of a way to get/change the root password?
Should I bother the company?
Sorry for the question: I am really a newbie, as new as 2 or 3 days.
Thanks to all.
MS
