Again, all you will learn from this is if it DOESN'T work -- if
you can catch it doing something "wrong". You'll never be able
to say, definitively, "yes, this is the same as XP".



Here is what I just did:

I have XP in a virtual machine but never updated it.

Went to update it now for the first time and the process went very fast.

There were two preliminary updates needed and once they were applied it
found and started to fetch 131 more ASAP.

So my theory that MS was throttling updates for older systems is
wrong...looks like they are singling out Win7 for some reason.


I wonder why ?
