Thank you.

welcome to DH

.

I like to keep my sig yellow because i use the "Midnight Heaven" theme. It goes very well with the black background. Very easy to read. I know that some people w/the lighter themes it is somewhat difficult to read, but that is how i like it for my settings.

MS changed their release pattern to match most other vendors...instead of 'checking MS Update every day' you now only have to check the first Tuesday of every month. Patching systems 12x a year is ridiculous, but a heck of alot better than 48+ (which was the previous MS norm).

Most other unix vendors are on a monthly patch-release cycle too.

I'm not sure if these patches are available incrementally via Technet outside of the Tuesday cycle.
