Actually, most Mac OS systems are quite often checking for new patches and
installing them. If you go to Apple->About This Mac and then click the button
labeled System Report you will get loads of information about your system. One
of the items in the left column is called "Installs" and in there you can find
every patch to your computer. Generally something is pushed about once a week.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn
