I don't disable my updates, but never have I had windows 8 automatically download on my windows 7 system. Windows 7 wasn't downloaded onto my vista system either.

Hi, Raul. You ask Folks folks, do you all who are upset about the iOS 7 being downloaded > also disable your Mac or Windows updates so they are not downloaded > without your permission? I certainly do, I use Windows and Microsoft is well-known for beta testing their updates on the unfortunate users who have automatic updates enabled. I do updates manually only, and usually some time after they're released. This, of course, is more necessary with a mobile device with their comparitively smaller storage. As for making the update easier, Apple's strategy here actually doesn't, it just makes it takes less time at the point of use. Technical and non-technical users benefit from that equally, I believe, and the benefit to some users is bought at the cost of difficulties for others. These difficulties won't, as I said to david, bounce on to Apple, but that doesn't mean they're not there. Aman On 9/26/13, Raul A.
