Huh, that doesn't happen on my Win7 machine. > On Linux a little icon up > in the top back will notify you if there are updates and > not get in the way at all. My machine puts an icon on the taskbar when new updates are available. I have to remember to look for it. I wonder if there's a setting you could change so the OS doesn't interrupt you? I am *very* fond of Win7. It's the only version of Windows I've ever felt affection for. There are things I'd change if I could, but there's very little that gets seriously in my way, and much that makes my computing life easier and more pleasant.
