Just be glad you don't have a PC. The last time I visited my mom, Windows 
Update was downloading for 8 hours. Connect to the internet, queue the 
updates, go to sleep, wake up, still downloading...

Granted, only MS would think 20+MB of their atypical non-stop bugfixes is 
an acceptable scenario for home users. Some of those critical updates 
aren't readily available for seperate download. or have to be installed 
in a particular order, so I usually only bring the "big" stuff like IE, 
OE, etc. and entrust the rest to MS's good judgement. (chuckle)
