i'm not sure if you mean me, but that's not exactly what i said.  i said
there would be more uniformity but that the license model of linux
allows for a higher chance that auto-updates would be used by users.
very few windows users i know have fully legit systems and many are
avoid using auto-update tools that might tell microsoft of their lack
of license compliance.
