Rolling out a distributed update across hundreds of thousands of machines over the entire planet is not a trivial thing to do. It's not going to be simultaneous for every user. Nor is that necessarily desirable.


this is probably the "issue" (not even really an issue for me just a curio).
anybody who has to support Windows boxes knows what it's like trying to get updates the moment they are released.
