yeah, that's alot of data in one concise pack. Looks like the method they
are using is CD (free mail order) and technet channels to distribute.

What would be really cool is if MS offered a "localized" Windowsupdate
Security Server :) which automated the process by reaching out and grabbing
the marginal security updates from MS (if configured to do so) and then use
hfnetchk and qchain or whatever utilities to install the needed fixes. Oww
yeah, and it could provide a web front-end like windowsupdate. :) I'm sure
someone besides me has thought of this. The Windowsupdate site is a great
interface to point users to, but we need a local Server w/ LAN speed access.

Of course, it requires Passport to order it. How hard would it be for
Microsoft to just post it for download???
