What's the difference between Administrator and Administrator Group in windows?

What's the difference between these 2 notations in windows?

One is a specific user, the other is a specific group. Users in the 'Administrator Group' will have the same rights as the 'Administrator' user itself. Windows needs an 'Administrator' user for a variety of processes. The Administrator is in the Administrator Group, though I believe that's more for notational convenience than actual rights inheritance.
