> Most Windoze users I speak with suffer patch fatigue.

I've got five Windows 7 computers at home and they all get patched every month.

It's only fatiguing if you don't keep up, otherwise it's just an excuse to have a beer or two and read a book for a change.

Wouldn’t it be nice if MS offered something like a home version of WSUS so you wouldn’t have to D/L every patch 5 times? And the same for antivirus protection and Adobe products?

So you’re sittin’ in the airport terminal, waitin’ for your flight, tappity-tap on your Windows 7 laptop.

“Now boarding Group 2 for USA123 to Los Angeles!”

That’s you, so you turn off your computer.

And it says

“Now installing update 1 of 153493 Please do not turn off or unplug your computer”

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, that happened to me.
